ATLS:
This program was developed by the American College of Surgeons Committee on Trauma and designed to assist physicians in providing the first hour of emergency care to trauma patients. The Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS) teaches a systematic, concise approach to the early care of the trauma patient.
