Trauma centers and trauma systems are vital community assets. By aggregating resources and personnel dedicated to the care of the injured patient, they lower trauma morbidity and mortality. The trauma center is a key educational component of all members of the health care team. Complex and advanced medical care is coordinated in a fiscally responsible manner that facilitates and improves patient care and stimulates innovation. The threat of more domestic terrorism and mass casualties in the post 9-11 world has exponentially increased the need for, and responsibilities of, trauma systems. Healthy trauma centers are an indispensable component of a healthy community.
创伤中心和创伤系统是社区的重要资产。通过集中致力于救治受伤患者的资源和人员，它们降低了创伤的发病率和死亡率。创伤中心是医疗团队所有成员的关键教育组成部分。复杂和先进的医疗护理以财政上负责任的方式进行协调，这有助于并改善患者护理，并激发创新。在9·11事件后的世界中，更多国内恐怖主义和大规模伤亡事件的威胁成倍增加了对创伤系统的需求及其责任。健康的创伤中心是健康社区不可或缺的组成部分。
