ACUTE CARE SURGEONS AT TWO HOSPITALS

TRENTON

The Bristol-Myers Squibb Trauma Center at Capital Health Regional Medical Center in Trenton is a New Jersey State designated Level II Trauma Center. The designation means that our center provides an aggressive, multidisciplinary approach to treating injured patients transferred to us from across Mercer County and adjacent parts of Somerset, Hunterdon, Burlington, and Middlesex counties as well as nearby areas of Pennsylvania.

HOPEWELL

Capital Health Medical Center - Hopewell offers our STARS program. STARS, our Surgical Trauma and Acute Resuscitative Service program, includes our acute care surgeons who are on call to perform emergency surgery. When necessary, they can facilitate seamless transfers to our Level II Trauma Center. The STARS program also includes the new hospital’s Surgical Intensive Care Unit staffed by surgical intensivists (surgeons trained in acute care surgery as well as specially trained physician assistants, nurse practioners and nurses) to provide an advanced level of 24/7 observation before, during and after surgical procedures as well as emergency bedside procedures when necessary.

Acute care surgery is a relatively new surgical field that incorporates training in surgical critical care, trauma surgery, and emergency general surgery to urgently assess and treat patients with general surgical emergencies.

Most emergencies that require an acute care surgeon are abdominal conditions including, but not limited to:

• Abdominal aneurysms (pre and post repair)• Acute Appendicitis • Cholecystitis • Diverticulitis• Liver/GI masses (pre and post resection)• Pancreatitis• Intestinal obstruction• Intestinal ischemia • Intra-abdominal sepsis• Incarcerated hernias• Perforated internal organs

MULTIDISCIPLINARY AND COLLABORATIVE CARE

In addition to having acute care surgeons at both Capital Health hospitals, our surgeons also collaborate, when necessary, with expert physician specialists from other Capital Health programs without having to transfer you or your loved one to another hospital far away. These include:

• Capital Institute for Neurosciences• Center for Digestive Health• Heart & Vascular Institute• Interventional Radiology & Radiology• Orthopedic Surgery• Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery• Emergency Medicine
