1 Fifteen-Year Trauma System Performance Analysis Demonstrates Optimal Coverage for Most Severely Injured Patients and Identifies a Vulnerable Population  David J. Ciesla, MD, FACS, Joseph J. Tepas, MD, FACS, Etienne E. Pracht, PhD, Barbara Langland-Orban, MD, John Y. Cha, MD, FACS, Lewis M. Flint, MD, FACS  Journal of the American College of Surgeons  Volume 216, Issue 4, Pages (April 2013) DOI: /j.jamcollsurg Copyright © 2013 American College of Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Annual discharges for (A) all injured patients and (B) severely injured patients. Annual injury discharges increased in the elderly and adults but decreased for children. Severe injury discharges increased for the elderly and adults but decreased in children. Light gray, elderly; dark gray, adult; black, children.

3 Figure 2 (A) The number of injury discharges increased for nontrauma centers (NTC; model: x = 1, ± 92.33; p < 0.01) and designated trauma centers (DTC; model: x = 1, ± 77.04; p < 0.01). (B) The number of severe injury discharges increased for DTC (model: x =  ± 33.54; p < 0.01) but decreased for NTC (model: x = −82.19 ± 24.04; p < 0.01). By 2010, 35% of injured patients and 64% of severely injured patients were discharged from DTCs.

4 Figure 3 (A) The number of injured patients/center increased for DTC (model: x = ± 4.21; p < 0.01) and NTC (model: x = ± 0.75; p < 0.01). (B) The number of severely injured patients/center increased for DTC (model: x = 12.51±1.73; p < 0.01) but did not change for NTC (model: x = −0.08 ± 0.11; p = 0.51). DTC, designated trauma centers; NTC, nontrauma centers. Journal of the American College of Surgeons  , DOI: ( /j.jamcollsurg ) Copyright © 2013 American College of Surgeons Terms and Conditions

5 Figure 4 Proportion of (A) all injured and (B) severely injured patients discharged from DTC stratified by age category. The proportion of injured patients and severely injured patients discharged from trauma centers increased for all age groups. DTC, designated trauma centers; NTC, nontrauma centers.
