Despite these limitations, however, MacKenzie et al. concluded that when all panel studies are considered collectively, they do provide some face validity and support the hypothesis that treatment in a trauma center versus a nontrauma center is associated with fewer inappropriate deaths and possibly even disability. Registry evaluation was found to be useful for assessing overall effectiveness of trauma systems. Jurkovich and Mock concluded the data clearly did not meet class I evidence. Their critique of trauma registries included the following: there are often missing data, miscodings occur, there may be inter-rater reliability factors, the national norms are not population-based, there is little detail about the cause of death, and they do not take into account prehospital deaths.
At the core of the system organization is the Level I trauma center. Most of these Level I facilities are located at tertiary referral centers within major urban environments. Along with the patient characteristics, these centers foster the development of trauma system infrastructure elements including trauma leadership, professional resources, information management, performance improvement, research, education, outreach, and advocacy. By virtue of their inherently academic disposition, Level I centers generally serve as the regional resource for injury care.
Obviously, this responsibility could be shared between groups. Nevertheless, hospitals are being asked to pay on-call stipends to neurosurgeons that are quite large, considering the relatively low probability of being called in. Other factors affecting trauma availability by specialty surgeons are freestanding ambulatory surgery centers where the surgeons can often avoid government regulations, do not have to take calls, and have hospitalists care for their patients at night. These problems will be accentuated in the next few years as the elderly population (aged 65 and older) reaches 30% of the total population.
