distant range gunshot wounds caused by a short barrelled firearm
Explanation:

A gunshot wound (GSW) is physical trauma caused by a bullet from a firearm.[10][11] Damage may include bleeding, broken bones, organ damage, infection of the wound, or loss of the ability to move part of the body.[2] Damage depends on the part of the body hit, the path the bullet follows through the body, and the type and speed of the bullet.[11] Long term complications can include lead poisoning and post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).[1][2][12]
Depending on the extent of injury, management can range from urgent surgical intervention to observation. As such, any history from the scene such as gun type, shots fired, shot direction and distance, blood loss on scene, and pre-hospital vitals signs can be very helpful in directing management
