EMERGENCY

In the UK’s capital, a world-first system of hospitals, air ambulances, and paramedics provides a safety net for 10 million lives.   Known as The London Major Trauma System, it has improved survival rates for major trauma patients by 50%.   With access right across this system, Emergency is a present-tense medical documentary box-set - four serial episodes following the minute-by-minute decisions trauma teams make to treat the most serious cases: from life-saving interventions at the road-side to A&E critical care, from cutting-edge surgery to painstaking rehabilitation.
