BACKGROUND: Strategies to optimize early trauma care have been introduced in Japan; however, detailed evaluation of the progress achieved has not been reported.STUDY DESIGN: In this retrospective observational study, patients registered in the Japanese nationwide trauma registry were stratified according to probability of survival (Ps) > 0.5 or 0.5 (early, 25,917; late, 55,032) and 8,898 patients with Ps 0.5 group and 0.67 [0.60 to 0.76] in the Ps > 0.5 group). In-hospital mortality rates in both groups were also significantly reduced (AOR [95% CI] 0.70 [0.64 to 0.76] and 0.73 [0.64 to 0.82], respectively). Significant improvements were observed in patients with a Revised Trauma Score >= 7 on arrival or an Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) of the abdomen >= 3. Limited improvements were observed in patients with head AIS >= 3 and in patients who underwent thoracotomy.CONCLUSIONS: Although early trauma care has generally improved, specific progress was variable. Focused panel review of patients with severe head injury or undergoing thoracotomy may be an efficient strategy for further improvement. (J Am Coll Surg 2017; 224: 191e198.
