The triage of all injured children to regional pediatric trauma centers may be impractical and unnecessarily exclude adult level I trauma centers from the care of the acutely injured child.
The purpose of this study was to critically evaluate the outcome of iniured children treated in an adult level I trauma center by adult trauma surgeons.
The records of 410 consecutively treated children (age<=15 years) and 188 young adults (age 16 to 18 years) admitted to the trauma service during a 2-year period (ending December 1991) were studied.
The probability of survival was calculated using TRISS methodology.
Results were analyzed using the Z statistic, permitting objective comparison with national norms (Major Trauma Outcome Study).
