Objective: To determine the epidemiological aspects of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) in a regional trauma center. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on patients with TBI during 2013 to 2016 in a single center in Hamedan, central Iran. The distribution and relationships of TBI was assessed with gender, age, type of trauma, traumatic cause, exiting status and Length of Hospitalization (LOH). Data were analyzed by Stata V11 statistical software. Results: In general, 9426 patients with TBI were enrolled in analyses. The mean ± SD age of patients was 29.70 (±21.46) years. Multivariate logistic regression indicated that being male [OR: 1.29; 95% CI (2.92-4.73), P ≤0.001], 41-50 to 71-80 and 90+ years old' age groups (1.325 days [OR: 2.01; 95% CI (1.60-2.52), p≤0.001] and different types of trauma were significantly related to mortality. Conclusion: TBI is one of the main causes of mortality and LOH of the young population. By providing preventive measures and a traumatic care system, the burden of trauma can be greatly reduced, the implementation of the trauma care system in Hamedan province is a necessity.

“…In the United States, occupational accidents in the construction industry resulted in the deaths of about 17.29 workers out of 100,000 between 1980 and 1992 (8). Accidents in the transportation industry also represent a major cause of morbidity and mortality of youth worldwide; in developing countries such as Iran, there is a high rate of deaths due to accidents in the transport sector, at 25.8 deaths per 100,000 people, whereas in developed countries, this rate is 19.9 deaths (9,10).…”
