Iranian National Fracture Registry

Abstract

The vast majority of collected data in trauma patients can provide medical, economic and social information to guide the health care system for operating scheduled preventive programs to decrease the burden of trauma-related injuries. Also utilizing trauma registry’s data to compare with exiting international criteria in trauma care is another advantage. Analyzing the trauma mechanism based on registered data is the first step to clarify injuries' causes and construct primary preventive trauma injuries’ local or national programs. Over the years registered data will elucidate the morbidity and mortality causes to reprogramming health care systems' policies and planning. Therefore, conducting a national trauma registry system is an important issue to introduce to health care system as soon as possible.
