Adherence to national trauma triage criteria in Norway: a cross-sectional study
There is good adherence to the national criteria for activation of the trauma team among Norwegian trauma hospitals after implementation of national guidelines. Individual hospitals argue the use of certain local criteria and trauma team activation decision-making processes to increase their precision in specific patient populations and demographics. Further steps should be done to reduce the variation in TTA decision-making processes among hospitals and improve documentation quality.
