Traumatic injury is a significant contributor to global disease burden, with serious injury commonly resulting in disability and profound costs to the individual, family and society. This population-based project will describe the long term consequences of injury and recovery experiences of more than 2500 seriously injured patients. This longitudinal study will use quantitative and qualitative data to provide a comprehensive overview of patient outcomes and experiences in the first 5-years after injury.
