AEM Early Access 48: The Effect of Trauma Center Verification Level on Outcomes in TBI patients undergoing Inter-facility Transfer AEMEarlyAccess's podcast

    • Medicine

Previous literature demonstrates increased mortality for Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) with transfer to a Level II versus Level I trauma center. Our objective is to determine the effect of the most recent American College of Surgeons-Committee on Trauma (ACS-COT) Resources for the Optimal Care of the Injured Patient resources manual (“The Orange Book”) on outcomes after severe TBI afterinterfacility transfer to Level I vs Level II center.
