Trauma: Who Cares? (2007)

This study shows a rounded picture of current trauma care provision in England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Offshore Islands. It draws on data provided by the clinicians involved in the are of these patients (from questionnaires) and data extracted from the casenotes. However, these data are accompanied by peer review, by practising clinicians involved in the day-to-day care of trauma patients, to give a much richer picture than a purely quantitative assessment would allow.
