Thanks to the vision of Dr. McClelland and the stewardship of Dr. Lewis Flint, SRGS guided generations through the complexities of surgical knowledge—long before digital journals made it easy.

SRGS may have ended, but its legacy lives on in every surgeon it educated.

✔️Older or more severely injured children are frequently treated at adult trauma centers.

✔️Mortality is similar for seriously injured patients, but minor injuries are managed faster at pediatric hospitals.

Age, injury severity, and transport method all matter—but trauma-accredited care is key.
