☆The survey was distributed to the faculty and head of the departments of various medical colleges who are actively involved in advanced trauma life support (ATLS) programme in India. Armed Forces surgeons, orthopedic surgeons and vascular surgeons who also deal with a significant number of trauma patients were also included. The link was shared by email and social media. Participation was voluntary. The drawback of such an approach is lack of exact denominator and hence the response rate is not known.
