Cross-sectional
Intervention
The Trauma Triage App is a smartphone and tablet application that is a practical and quick-to-use user interface to a prediction model that estimates the probability that a patient is severely injured during field triage. An advice whether to transport a patient to a higher-level trauma center or not is generated based on a pre-defined threshold probability.
