The American trauma system is designed to provide an organized response to injury. It draws its foundations from lessons learned from America's involvement in the wars of the 20th century as well as principles developed in urban community hospitals. Although run at the local and state government level, it is guided by national societies and has become a world class example. It also currently faces challenges with declining reimbursement and providing equal access to care for all Americans. Professional societies and legislative bodies are continuing to work together for fair and equitable solutions to these issues.
美国创伤系统旨在对损伤提供有组织的应对措施。其基础源于美国参与20世纪战争所汲取的经验教训以及城市社区医院所形成的原则。尽管该系统由地方和州政府层面运作,但受全国性协会指导,已成为世界级典范。目前,它还面临着报销费用下降以及为所有美国人提供平等医疗服务的挑战。专业协会和立法机构正在继续共同努力,为这些问题寻求公平公正的解决方案。
