“…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 ]

“…In our study we also found a significantly higher level of dataset completeness in the electronic document compared to the primarily handwritten document: 93.6% versus 82.5% (p < 0.01) regarding total and 97.3% versus 91.3% (p < 0.01) regarding core dataset (Utstein style). Lossius et al [5], in a retrospective study on 225 major trauma cases, were able to obtain at least 47% of the recommended core dataset (Utstein style).…”

“…Regarding data quality, "on-line" data-reporting techniques with real-time data acquisition during emergency room (ER) procedures are favorable [4,5]. Among various on-line data-recording techniques described in the literature [6][7][8][9], the pen computer-based technique is considered to be superior to the others [4].…”

European Journal of Trauma Ab stractBackground: Quality management is a decisive factor in optimizing the treatment of major trauma cases. In this context high-quality data recording is of fundamental importance. Regarding data quality, "on-line" -especially pen computer-based -recording techniques are favored. Up to now, however, there is no study really proving a higher quality of emergency room (ER) data by use of such a technique in comparison with a paper-based technique. Material and Methods: In all major trauma cases a standardized ER data recording, using "TraumaWatch", was performed; the study collective was divided into two subgroups: the "pen" collective using a pen computer-based technique and the "paper" collective using a paper-based technique. Data quality was defined as level of data completeness. Results: A total of 207 major trauma cases underwent ER management. There was no statistically significant difference between the "pen" (n = 135) and the "paper" collective (n = 72) regarding gender, age, mechanism of injury, injury severity, and duration of ER management. There was no correlation between degree of injury severity and level of dataset completeness. Total dataset completeness was significantly higher within the "pen" collective (93.6% vs. 82.5%; p < 0.01); the same applies to the core dataset (Utstein style) completeness (97.3% vs. 91.3%; p < 0.01). Conclusion: Defining data quality as level of data completeness, a pen computer-based recording technique, which allows easy and fast -real-time -data acquisition during ER management, seems to be superior to the conventional paper-based technique.

“…Ansvaret for tilbakeføringer fra traumesenter til hjemsykehus (mottakende sykehus) må defineres i et traumesystem. (54) viser at med dagens krav dokumenteres kun en liten del av de viktigste data, selv ved sykehus som har spesiell fokus på traumebehandling. Et traumeregister er et viktig verktøy for å skaffe faktabasert kunnskap til forbedringer.…”
