What this trial studies

This observational study aims to evaluate whether major trauma patients in the Val d'Oise region are referred to the appropriate trauma centers for their care. It focuses on assessing the quality of the triage process, which is essential for directing patients to the right level of care. The study will analyze data collected from patients suspected of having major trauma and will consider various physiological and anatomical criteria for inclusion. The findings could help improve the management of trauma patients and ensure better survival rates.
