Ten-year trends of adult trauma patients in Central Denmark Region from 2010 to 2019: A retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Trauma causes significant economic and societal burdens, and the trauma patient population and their prognosis change over time. This study aims to analyze 10-year trends of trauma patients at a major trauma center in Central Denmark Region.

Methods

Five thousand three hundred and sixty-six patients aged ≥16 years with Injury Severity Score (ISS) > 0 admitted by trauma team activation at a major trauma center between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2019, were included. An annual percent change with a 95% confidence interval was used to estimate trends in the mechanism of injuries. Multiple logistic regression with mortality as the outcome was adjusted for age, sex, and ISS. Admission year was used as continuous variable in logistic regressions.
