Observational Study on Trauma Activation Criteria

This study is looking at how well Methodist Dallas Medical Center's trauma activation criteria work. These criteria help decide which patients need extra care from a trauma team. Researchers will be quantifying the over- and under-triage rates, which means they'll see how often patients are given too much or too little care based on these criteria. The goal is to make sure resources are used effectively and patients get the right level of care. This is an observational study, meaning researchers will be looking at existing patient information rather than giving new treatments. They plan to include 5000 patients who received care at Methodist Dallas Medical Center between November 24, 2023, and November 25, 2025. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status.

  • Determine the over/under-triage rates2 year

    The project will be evaluated by comparing the over- and under-triage rates of the historical criteria and the reformed criteria. As the criteria reform was live November 25, 2024, pre-implementation will be defined as November 24, 2023 - November 24, 2024 and post-implementation will be defined as November 25, 2024 - November 25, 2025.
