Swiss Trauma Registry

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The Swiss Conference of Cantonal Health Directors has transferred the planning of highly specialized medicine to a specialized body under the direction of the Swiss Academy of Sciences. This specialist body has defined the treatment of critically ill as part of highly specialized medicine and founded the Swiss Trauma Registry at 12 hospitals in Switzerland. The registry is designed to provide a consistent and standardized approach and treatment outcomes in the short and long term quality control and as a basis for planning highly specialized medicine.
