abstract="The collection of trauma data has been on the radar of trauma professionals since the recommendations of the National Road Trauma Advisory Council report on Trauma Systems in 1993, and the Victorian Review of Trauma and Emergency Services in 1999 which recognised trauma registries as having the potential to improve care of the injured patent. The Australian Trauma Registry delivered its inaugural report in 2014 (http://www.ntri.org.au/quality-improvement/austqip) which, through data entry and analysis, provided an opportunity for comprehensive analysis of injury - the first time such an analysis has been possible.
