“…Ac o-operation between trauma registries in Scandinaviam ust be based on acknowledging the strengthofthe existing differences and uniformity. We believet hat the existing trauma registries in Scandinavia could make smaller changes for defining an adapting to ac ommon cored ata set with precise definitions, but it should be emphasisedthat all data registrars in afutureScandinavian TR should receive the same appropriate training beforebeing involved in the datacollection process and in scoring of injury (29). This kind of training is possible through initiatives like the Association for the Advancement of Automotive Medicine (AAAM) training courses for AIS scoring (32).…”

Background: the organisationo ft raumac arei ns candinavia has several similarities, including trauma registries, but so far there are limited amount of research on efficiency and outcome. data and results from trauma outcome studies like the us mtos are not fully applicable to the scandinavian trauma population.Aims: to reveal the feasibility of usingd ata from existing trauma registries of major hospitals in scandinavia, for aminimal common dataset, in ajoint, prospective scandinavian mtos.Material and Methods: We collected data points, data point definitions, andinclusion/ exclusion criteria, from the major trauma registries of the swedish trauma registry standard, three university hospitalsindenmark, one university hospital in Finland, and the norwegian national tr auma registry.t he collected material was compared to reveal common data points, inclusion criteria, and the compatibilityofdata point definitions.Results: the median number of data points was 147 (range 71-257; interquartile range =90-205). Most registries lacked precise data definition catalogues. Only 16 data points could be considered as common, of which just afew were core trauma data. Four data points had the same data category options but were not considered having the same data point definitions. The inclusion criteria were not uniform.Conclusions: tr auma registries in scandinavia have few common core data and data point definitions. There were data points for calculating the Tr auma and Injury Severity score (triss) but the inclusion criteriav aried too much to ensure av alid comparison.

Cardiac Arrest and Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Outcome Reports

Abstract-Outcome after cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation is dependent on critical interventions, particularly early defibrillation, effective chest compressions, and advanced life support. Utstein-style definitions and reporting templates have been used extensively in published studies of cardiac arrest, which has led to greater understanding of the elements of resuscitation practice and progress toward international consensus on science and resuscitation guidelines. Despite the development of Utstein templates to standardize research reports of cardiac arrest, international registries have yet to be developed. In April 2002, a task force of the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) met in Melbourne, Australia, to review worldwide experience with the Utstein definitions and reporting templates. The task force revised the core reporting template and definitions by consensus. Care was taken to build on previous definitions, changing data elements and operational definitions only on the basis of published data and experience derived from those registries that have used Utstein-style reporting. Attention was focused on decreasing the complexity of the existing templates and addressing logistical difficulties in collecting specific core and supplementary (ie, essential and desirable) data elements recommended by previous Utstein consensus conferences. Inconsistencies in terminology between in-hospital and out-of-hospital Utstein templates were also addressed. The task force produced a reporting tool for essential data that can be used for both quality improvement (registries) and research reports and that should be applicable to both adults and children. The revised and simplified template includes practical and succinctThe American Heart Association makes every effort to avoid any actual or potential conflicts of interest that may arise as a result of an outside relationship or a personal, professional, or business interest of a member of the writing panel. Specifically, all members of the writing group are required to complete and submit a Disclosure Questionnaire showing all such relationships that might be perceived as real or potential conflicts of interest.

“…In general, an ISS of 1-8 is considered to represent mild trauma, 9-15 represents moderate trauma, 16-24 represents severe trauma, and over 25 represents very severe trauma. (11)(12)(13) The ISS index can be useful for predicting the mortality of trauma patients, estimating the length of hospital stay and recovery period, and for predicting resource demands for patient management in a trauma center. (14) In this study, 23.8% of patients in 2014 and 15.8% in 2015 had an ISS >15 (Table 2).…”

Purpose: Two years have passed since a level I trauma center was officially opened in the Gacheon Gil Hospital, South Korea. We analyzed 2014 and 2015 registered patient data from the Korean Trauma Data Base (KTDB) to identify trends in trauma patient care and factors that influence the quality of trauma care at the Gacheon Gil trauma center.Methods: Data was extracted from the KTDB included patient age, sex, systolic blood pressure at emergency room arrival, revised trauma score, injury severity score, trauma injury severity score, transfusion amount, and the cause of death was analyzed.Results: A total of 3269 trauma patients were admitted to our trauma center in 2014 and 3225 in 2015. Demographics and mechanism of injury were not significantly different between years. The severity of trauma injury was decreased in 2015 although the mortality rate was slightly increased. This requires further analysis.Conclusion: The aim of this study was to determine the general status and trends in trauma incidence and management outcomes for the Incheon area. We noted no significant changes in trauma status from 2014 to 2015. We need to collect and review trauma patient data over a long period in order to elucidate trauma incidence and management trends in the trauma field. Finally, studies using trauma patient data will indicate appropriate quality control factors for trauma care and help to improve the quality of trauma management. [ J Trauma Inj 2016; 29: 155-160 ]
