Not exactly what you asked for, but close, is an article from Critical Miss, an online gaming magazine with a sick bent.  http://www.criticalmiss.com/current/traumaticinjury1.html
I always liked how Over the Edge provided "Buzz words" for the GM to throw in to describe the damage and make it seem real (I forget any off hand, but I think it would be helpful).
