The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of earlier placement of CPC on the resuscitative measures required for life-threatening pelvic ring injuries and to guide the development of future efficacy trials of three advanced resuscitation techniques (surgical pelvic packing, and/or angioembolization, and/or REBOA).
