Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Injuries are the leading cause of mortality in age group of people junior to 45 years. Central data collection is important to survey basic injury causation and trauma care quality. The Czech Trauma Registry was started in 2004. The aim of study was to discover valid statistic analysis from current data collection and its clinical practice contribution. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Doctors working in the Centre of trauma care (University hospital Brno) collect and enter data to the Trauma Registry. Data collection is practiced continuously through the hospitalization. Abbreviated Injury Scale and Injury Severity Score are used for injury severity determining. In the University hospital Brno 161 patients (159 patients met validity criterion) were entered in trauma registry. RESULTS: 159 patients were evaluated, Injury Severity Score was 16-75, demographically from 6 regions. Traffic accident was the most frequent cause of injury. Average inpatient age was 43 years. Mortality in our patient file was 10.7%. Investing sum for 1 patient who was returned to Trauma Registry was 209 019 Czech crowns. DISCUSSION: Authors confront their results with the German Trauma Registry, results in basic parameters are analogous. Data collection should be proceeding correctly. Czech Trauma Registry should be the instrument of quality management and is waiting for its statutory provision.
