Honor Roll<br />

Over the past 30 years, <strong>ATLS</strong> has grown from a local<br />

course training of Nebraska doctors to care for trauma<br />

patients to a family of trauma specialists from more<br />

than 60 countries who volunteer their time to ensure<br />

that our materials reflect the most current research and<br />

that our course is designed to improve patient outcomes.<br />

The Tenth Edition of <strong>ATLS</strong> reflects the efforts of the<br />

individuals who contributed to the first nine editions,<br />

and we honor them here:<br />
