Justification
In almost half of the trauma patients, an association between the trauma and the consumption of alcohol and drugs is detected, with the characteristic that in these patients, the rate of recidivism is especially high. This recurrence can be reduced by almost 50% through the application of Brief Motivational Intervention during hospitalization, however, in Spain, this type of Secondary Prevention is practically not carried out.
Objective of this Conference
- Disseminate the usefulness of Secondary Prevention in the hospital setting for traumatized patients.
- Prepare a consensus document, signed by different scientific societies, in which this Secondary Prevention practice is recommended, given that there is scientific evidence on its effectiveness
