Abstract | Major earthquakes can cause crush injuries. Damage to buildings is a major cause of death and injury in earthquakes, especially when solid building materials such as concrete are used. The most common injuries following earthquakes are fractures, compartment syndromes, major soft tissue injuries, and crush injuries. This highlights the importance of planning at the national level before natural disasters occur. The aim of this study was to review what needs to be done in orthopedic and trauma services in the field, during transfer, and in advanced treatment centers after an earthquake disaster in our country, where high-intensity earthquakes occur. In conclusion, strategic planning in the field, during transfer, and in advanced treatment centers can reduce the pressure on the health system in similar mass disasters. |
