Area of Science:

Trauma research
Biomechanical engineering
Health informatics

Background:

Trauma centers require robust data sharing for effective injury analysis.
Existing systems lack integrated medical and biomechanical data for crash investigations.

Purpose of the Study:

To establish a networked computer database for collaborative trauma research.
To enhance biomechanical injury evaluation through integrated data analysis.

Main Methods:

Developed a wide area network connecting 8 trauma centers.
Extended the National Automotive Sampling System with trauma-specific variables.
Implemented a relational/object database for medical data, including injury details and images.

Main Results:

A core repository facilitates network-wide case acquisition monitoring.
Data sharing enables collaborative injury cause evaluation.
Electronic rounds allow simultaneous multi-center case reviews.

Conclusions:

The developed network and database facilitate advanced trauma research.
Enhanced data integration improves biomechanical injury evaluation capabilities.
Collaborative analysis and expertise sharing are optimized across trauma centers.
