Expert consensus of important metrics for musculoskeletal trauma care

What is it about?

While many tools exist to evaluate trauma care, few focus more on musculoskeletal injuries. This study aimed to create a practical list of key measures to evaluate how musculoskeletal trauma care is provided in different health systems. This includes whether patients have access to specialized trauma care, how patients with multiple injuries are assessed upon initial arrival, and how serious issues like life or limb threatening problems are managed. The list created from this study can help healthcare systems around the world monitor and improve the quality of the care they provide.
