Abstract

Traumatic injury and its sequelae remains a major, unrecognized, public health problem in North America. It is the principle cause of death in patients aged 1-44 and the overall leading cause of life years lost in the United States. Recognizing this the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI), in conjunction with other federal agencies, organized a conference in June 2000 to discuss the basic and clinical research projects that could lead to improved outcomes following cardiopulmonary or post-injury resuscitation. The Post Resuscitative and Initial Utility of Life Saving Efforts (PULSE) Workshop resulted and eight workgroups were established to focus on various aspects including organ systems, pharmacology, epidemiology, and trauma. The Trauma Work group recommendations are presented in this manuscript. Despite the recognition of improved survival and outcome through advancements in trauma systems and trauma care, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) support ratio for trauma research is only 0.10 compared to 1.65 for cancer research and a remarkable support ratio of 3.51 for AIDS and HIV infection research. The successful federal HIV research program has significantly decreased the morbidity and mortality over the l...Continue Reading
