my week started on sunday...that is the way my calender goes...so I have already put in a full weeks work by most people's standards... lol....

as for the guy....blood is hanging so I have to assume he was unstable...

vascular injury remains an independent risk factor for death in a trauma patient with a penetrating injury.... combined with the probable need for a damage control procedure, he has a very poor prognosis. I base my thoughts that he will need damage control on the fact that blood is hanging and I imagine multiple internal injuries... rectum, colon, bladder, pelvis...etc...
