Abstract: Polytrauma involves multiple traumatic injuries requiring a coordinated response from a multidisciplinary team. This retrospective cohort study, conducted at a tertiary hospital, explored the roles of paramedics, radiologists, and pharmacists in managing polytrauma patients admitted between January 2022 and December 2022. Findings demonstrated that pre-hospital interventions by paramedics, timely imaging by radiologists, and effective pharmacologic management by pharmacists significantly improved patient outcomes, including reduced complication rates, shorter hospital stays, and lower mortality. The study underscores the importance of a cohesive multidisciplinary approach in optimizing polytrauma care.
