Study Details

Brief summary:

Penetrating injuries comprise roughly 30% of Methodist Health System (MHS) trauma patients. Firearm-related events have become more prevalent in the past few years. Active shooter events, mass casualties, assaults, and homicide are more commonplace which leads to an increase of trauma patients needing management of penetrating injuries.
