* SurgeonsCanDoAutopsiesIfTheyWant: Copiously and notably averted. All the lead characters but the nurse are trauma surgeons - and ''just'' trauma surgeons, who hand over their patients to the required specialists as necessary. When they need to reduce cranial swelling, they call in a neurosurgeon. When a character gets stabbed in the heart, they call in a cardiology surgeon. And when a foot needs to be reattached, they call in a vascular surgeon. One plotline actually involves an attending specialist stealing a patient from the new resident. Moreover, one such specialist is actually dually qualified in both cardio surgery and vascular surgery[[note]]not as much as a stretch as it seems, as the two specialities are very closely related:[[/note]]

The show stared Creator/JeremyNortham, Creator/LanaParrilla, Creator/MikeVogel, Creator/ElisabethHarnois, Creator/JeremyNortham as Dr Matt Proctor, Creator/LanaParrilla as Dr Eva Zambrano, Creator/MikeVogel as Dr Chris [=DeLeo=], Creator/ElisabethHarnois as Dr Serena Warren, and Creator/OmarGooding.
Creator/OmarGooding as charge nurse Tuck Brody.



* CombatMedic: The show has Matt Proctor, a general surgeon ("hernias and hemorrhoids" as another character puts it) who joins Miami Trauma - because before he was a general surgeon, he did two tours in the Persian Gulf and three years at the Landstuhl military hospital as a front-line combat trauma surgeon. ''It shows'', particularly in crisis situations when everyone else is at a loss for what to do. Eva Zambrano, a surgical fellow who had been in line to take over her trauma team, doesn't even argue when he gets the spot over her because he's ''so good'' at his job despite his personality quirks.
* EnsignNewbie: Medical example: the attending - the highest-ranked doctor in the ER - sends a new resident off to her first case on her own, telling her, "Page me when you get into trouble". To the highly-experienced nurse going with her, he says, "Page me two minutes before she gets into trouble".
* HospitalHottie: The entire cast. Zambrano is constantly hit on by patients and family members alike, [=DeLeo=] is a bit of a Casanova, Proctor gets it on with the hot-but-strange cardiology surgeon, and Warren is in one romance and out of another with astonishing regularity. Amazingly, the show is one of the more true-to-life depictions of high-stakes emergency medicine to hit the airwaves - aside, of course, from the aforementioned absurd attractiveness of it medical personnel.
