Question

Trauma statistics are usually generated from all different kinds of healthcare organizations. They can include information on all the different types of numbers. It also includes all the types of traumatic injuries, as well as the demographic information on the individuals who experienced them. The data that can be used to identify the different trends, depends on the different types of injuries that are most common. They can also be used to track the changes over time in the incidence of traumatic injuries. The source that I found that covers what trauma statistics are in healthcare would be the National trauma data standard. You can use it to inform the medical community, the public, and the decision makers about a wide variety of issues that characterize the current state of care for injured persons in our country. Also keep track of the most common issues with people. The most interesting thing I learned from reading the prompt would have to be, the alarming amount of people that commit suicides and homicide. The trauma that is the leading cause of death for individuals up to the age of 45 years (Table of Causes of Death). It is the fourth leading cause.
