Time to definitive care for patients with moderate and severe traumatic brain injury - does a trauma system matter?
New Zealand Medical Journal, 09/18/09
Kejriwal R et al. – TBI patients who were transferred from another hospital arrived well outside the recommended guidelines. While no significant difference in outcome was noted in this small cohort of patients further studies are warranted. The development of a national trauma registry would allow accumulation of data on larger numbers of patients and determine the true relevance of international best practice guidelines in New Zealand.
