History of the Decision Scheme The American College of Surgeons-Committee on Trauma (ACS-COT) developed guidelines to designate “trauma centers” in 1976 - Set standards for personnel, facilities, and processes necessary for the best care of injured persons Studies showed mortality reduction in regions with trauma centers
History of the Decision Scheme AKA- the Triage Decision Scheme It is discussed in the PHTLS course regarding how to decide where to transport trauma patients 5
History of the Decision Scheme The Decision Scheme has been revised four times (1990, 1993, 1999, 2006) In 2005 -2006 the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), with support from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), convened the National Expert Panel on Field Triage 6

Why this Decision Scheme is Unique Takes into account recent changes in assessment and care of the injured patient in the U. S. Adds views of a broader range of disciplines and expertise into the process 8
Purpose This Decision Scheme was revised to facilitate more effective triage and better match trauma patients’ conditions with the medical resources best equipped to treat them 9

Prehospital Trauma Triage (Destination) Procedure amended by Pierce County EMS
Step 1 Physiologic Criteria STEP 2 Anatomy of injury 14
STEP 1 MEASURE VITAL SIGNS & LEVEL OF CONSCIOUSNESS Changes: Glasgow Coma Scale < 14 Systolic BP <90 mm. Hg <20 breaths in infant < one year HR criteria removed Take patient to NEAREST Level I or II within 30 minutes Apply “Trauma ID Band” 15
Step 2 Anatomic Criteria STEP 3 Mechanism of Injury 16
STEP 2 ASSESS ANATOMY OF INJURY Changes: Penetrating injuries to extremities proximal to elbow and knee Pelvic fractures Open or depressed skull fractures Paralysis ‘Burns’ moved Take patient to NEAREST Level I 17
Step 3 Mechanism of Injury Criteria STEP 4 Assess Special Patient or System Considerations 18
STEP 3 ASSESS MECHANISM OF INJURY & EVIDENCE OF HIGHENERGY IMPACT Modified: Falls: Adults: >20 feet (one story = 10 feet) Children: >10 feet, or 2– 3 times the child’s height Take patient to NEAREST appropriate trauma center within 30 minutes Apply “Trauma ID Band” to patient removed 19
STEP 3 ASSESS MECHANISM OF INJURY & EVIDENCE OF HIGHENERGY IMPACT “High energy transfer situation” was changed to “high-risk vehicle crash” Intrusion modified to >12 inches at occupant site or >18 inches at any site Rollover was removed Vehicle telemetry data consistent 20
STEP 3 ASSESS MECHANISM OF INJURY & EVIDENCE OF HIGHENERGY IMPACT “What is vehicle telemetry? Combination of telematics and computing Integration of vehicle’s electrical architecture, cellular communication, GPS systems, and voice recognition Can notify of exact location of crash Can enable communication with occupants Can provide key injury information to providers regarding force, 21
STEP 3 ASSESS MECHANISM OF INJURY & EVIDENCE OF HIGHENERGY IMPACT “Pedestrian hit. . ” changed to “Vehicle v. Pedestrian/Bicyclist Thrown, Run over, or with Significant (>20 mph) Impact” “Motorcycle , ATV bicycle accident “changed to “Motorcycle crash >20 mph” 22
STEP 3 ASSESS MECHANISM OF INJURY & EVIDENCE OF HIGHENERGY IMPACT Removed Extrication time >20 minutes Rollover 23
Step 4 Special Considerations 24
STEP 4 ASSESS SPECIAL PATIENT OR SYSTEM CONSIDERATIONS Modified Age Older adults: Risk of injury/death increases after age 55 Children: Should be triaged preferentially to pediatric capable trauma centers Pregnancy – 2 nd/3 rd Trimester Pregnancy changed to read “Pregnancy > 20 weeks” 25
STEP 4 ASSESS SPECIAL PATIENT OR SYSTEM CONSIDERATIONS Added Anticoagulation and Bleeding Disorders Burns - moved from Step 2 Time Sensitive Extremity Injury End-Stage Renal Disease Requiring Dialysis 26
STEP 4 ASSESS SPECIAL PATIENT OR SYSTEM CONSIDERATIONS Removed/ Hostile environment (heat or cold) Medical illness (such as COPD, CHF) Diabetes Mellitus Morbid obesity Immunosuppression 27
