Abstract The specialties dealing with emergency medicine and emergency surgery are in need for a new roadmap. While the medical and surgical management of emergency conditions very often go handin-hand issues relating to emergency and trauma surgery have particular concerns which are global in magnitude. Obviously choosing a career dealing solely with emergencies and trauma is associated with concerns related to lifestyle issues and for surgeons maintenance of adequate operative experience with the increased non-operative management. Also dealing with patients whose outcome may be dismal with high associated morbidity and mortality is often not viewed as rewarding. The global flux of medical students away from general surgical training and trauma surgery in particular is an example of how recruitment to specialties dealing with uncomfortable unpredictable and out-of-office-hours work may be in dire straits. .
