There are many geographical, meteorological, transport and resource management issues to be addressed and better studied regarding this population. Thus, our study aims to examine the delivery of trauma and acute surgical care to the population of Northern Quebec. It is important to mention that there is a great lack of epidemiological resources for this population, hence the great interest in conducting this study.</p> Thu, 04 Nov 2021 23:13:06 +0000 Mehrshad Bakhshi and Evan Wong 2778 at /globalhealth
