6 History of the Decision Scheme The American College of Surgeons-Committee on Trauma (ACS-COT) developed guidelines to designate trauma centers in Set standards for personnel, facilities, and processes necessary for the best care of injured persons Studies showed mortality reduction in regions with trauma centers Page 6 Source: American Customer Satisfaction Index, Oct. 4, 2008 Jan. 31, 2009
7 History of the Decision Scheme National consensus conference in 1987 resulted in first ACS field triage protocol, the Triage Decision Scheme The Decision Scheme serves as the basis for field triage of trauma patients in most EMS systems in the U.S. Page 7 Source: American Customer Satisfaction Index, Oct. 4, 2008 Jan. 31, 2009
8 History of the Decision Scheme The Decision Scheme has been revised four times (1990, 1993, 1999, 2006) In the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), with support from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), convened the National Expert Panel on Field Triage Page 8 Source: American Customer Satisfaction Index, Oct. 4, 2008 Jan. 31, 2009
