David Pryce, from Wellington, Telford, is getting ready to set off on his 1,500-mile journey to take refurbished tricycles to disabled children in Ukraine's orphanages.
The original journey, scheduled for October last year, faced a setback after doctors recommended David delay."With the harsh winters that they face too, it just wasn't the right time. But now is the right time, and we can now start to get these important things to the places they need to go."
Three folding wheelchairs, 120 pairs of elbow crutches, an ex-NHS ambulance stretcher, toys and additional medical items have all been added to his cargo, which required David to install a heavy-duty roof rack to carry the extra items.

The European guideline on management of major bleeding and coagulopathy following trauma: sixth edition - Critical CareBackground Severe trauma represents a major global public health burden and the management of post-traumatic bleeding continues to challenge healthcare systems around the world. Post-traumatic bleeding and associated traumatic coagulopathy remain leading causes of potentially preventable multiorgan failure and death if not diagnosed and managed in an appropriate and timely manner. This sixth edition of the European guideline on the management of major bleeding and coagulopathy following traumatic injury aims to advise clinicians who care for the bleeding trauma patient during the initial diagnostic and therapeutic phases of patient management. Methods The pan-European, multidisciplinary Task Force for Advanced Bleeding Care in Trauma included representatives from six European professional societies and convened to assess and update the previous version of this guideline using a structured, evidence-based consensus approach. Structured literature searches covered the period since the last edition of the guideline, but considered evidence cited previously. The format of this edition has been adjusted to reflect the trend towards concise guideline documents that cite only the highest-quality studies and most relevant literature rather than attempting to provide a comprehensive literature review to accompany each recommendation. Results This guideline comprises 39 clinical practice recommendations that follow an approximate temporal path for management of the bleeding trauma patient, with recommendations grouped behind key decision points. While approximately one-third of patients who have experienced severe trauma arrive in hospital in a coagulopathic state, a systematic diagnostic and therapeutic approach has been shown to reduce the number of preventable deaths attributable to traumatic injury. Conclusion A multidisciplinary approach and adherence to evidence-based guidelines are pillars of best practice in the management of severely injured trauma patients. Further
