Trauma-related mortality in a European region with an intermediately mature trauma system: a comprehensive population-based analysis
This study highlights a dual epidemiological pattern of trauma-related mortality in a region with an intermediately mature trauma system. Adapting trauma care pathways to address both high- and low-energy trauma, particularly in an aging population, may improve efficiency, equity, and clinical outcomes.
