【 摘 要 】

Mechanisms of injury in trauma populations evolve over time as a result of system changes, prevention and safety activities, and shifts in population composition. Such changes have implications for reimbursement and resource utilization within all trauma centers. This study examines the evolution of trauma mechanisms at a regional Level I trauma center over 10 years to document the impact of these changes.
