Trauma in older patients

Description 
This will be a retrospective review of older patients diagnosed with major trauma patients that presented to Australia and New Zealand. The Australian Trauma Registry receives data from 27 major trauma services across Australia, recording data for patients with major injuries including demographic information, details on the nature and severity of the injury, processes of care, and patient outcomes. This project will assess the epidemiology, trend in presentations, management and outcomes of the eligible population.
