Thank you all. Ron, when you get a better idea of what the study will  
consist of, I'll pass it along to my contacts at the trauma services at Mizzou  and 
SLU.

I am delighted to talk to the Ben Taub Surgeons: Drs.  Wall, Carrick,  Norman,
Welsh, Scott, and Liscum about this study, as  long as entry criteria and 
definition of end points are well defined and  scientifically sound.    OR 
any of
you are eligible to contact  them directly.

The only catch is getting the study  to  have sponsored gadgets to use. The
unit I work at now has seen  just under  200 major chest injuries in the
first 18 months since  opening; we are about  to embark on an extensive
review of these. I  can off-hand think of 4 or 5  patients we discussed that
we would like  to fix - if we had access to these  gadgets, which we don't
as we are  a public hospital wth out equipment  dependant upone the  national
health tender,\.
