研究概览
简要总结
In 2016 and 2017 the investigators conducted two clinical trials in which emergency medicine physicians were randomized either to an intervention (customized, theoretically-based video games) or to a control (nothing or text-based education). This study will now assess long-term outcomes for physicians enrolled in those two trials to evaluate the effect of the interventions on triage practices for trauma patients who presented initially to non-trauma centers in the US between December 2016 and November 2018.

结局指标
主要结局
Number of patients triaged to trauma centers
时间窗: 1 year following the intervention
The investigators will use Medicare claims to measure the number of patients, treated by study participants, who present initially to non-trauma centers after a moderate-severe injury and are transferred to a Level I/II trauma center during that episode of care. They will compare triage patterns for patients treated by physicians in the intervention and in the control groups.
次要结局
- Number of moderate-severely injured patients who die 30-days after initial evaluation(1 year following the intervention)
- Frequency of resources used for patients with moderate-severe injuries treated by participants(1 year following intervention)
