Traumatology
(重定向自Traumatologist)
Traumatology (from Greek trauma, meaning injury or wound) has two meanings, following from two definitions of trauma.
In medicine, it refers to the study of wounds and injuries caused by accidents or violence to a person, and the surgical therapy and repair of the damage. Traumatology is a branch of medicine. It is often considered a subset of surgery and in countries without the specialty of trauma surgery it is most often a sub-specialty to orthopedic surgery. Traumatology may also be known as accident surgery.
