Traditionally, the orthopaedic trauma literature has been dominated by small studies that were largely single-center initiatives. More recently, there has been a paradigm shift toward larger, multicenter studies because the orthopaedic community embraced the concepts of evidence-based medicine and the need for high-quality research to guide clinical practice. The International Orthopaedic Multicenter Study in Fracture Care is a large multicenter international cohort study in musculoskeletal trauma in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. This is the first study of this magnitude within the global orthopaedic trauma community. The International Orthopaedic Multicenter Study in Fracture Care study has provided an opportunity to form new international collaborative relationships and to develop new research capacity and global collaborative relationships that will provide the foundation for future studies in injury prevention and management.Levels of Evidence:IV.GLOBAL RESEARCH IN ORTHOPAEDIC TRAUMATraditionally, the orthopaedic trauma literature has been dominated by small studies that were largely singlecenter initiatives. More recently, there has been a paradigm shift toward larger, multicenter studies because the orthopaedic community embraced the concepts of evidence-based medicine and the need for high-quality research to guide clinical practice. This shift has fostered new international collaborative relationships within the orthopaedic trauma community and the establishment of research networks capable of conducting large international studies. However, to date, relatively few of these research initiatives have included investigators and clinical centers outside of North America, Europe, and Australia or have addressed the gap in our knowledge regarding prognosis and outcomes associated with musculoskeletal injuries on a global scale.
