US hospital type and proximity to mass shooting events.
This study used data on mass shootings to examine the proximity of adult trauma centers, pediatric trauma centers (TCs), and non鈥搕rauma center hospitals to such events. The investigators concluded that based on the data, to ensure the success of trauma care everywhere, all hospitals regardless of TC status should expect and prepare for the eventuality of a mass-casualty event involving both adults and children. All hospitals must be ready to serve as the combat forward-field hospital.

Trauma surge index: advancing the measurement of trauma surges and their influence on mortality.
The authors developed a new measure of hospital capacity strain corresponding to trauma admissions and examined the relationship between trauma surges and inpatient mortality. Their Trauma Surge Index (TSI) method can be implemented by hospitals and trauma systems to examine periods of high-capacity strain retrospectively, identify specific resources that might have been needed, and better direct future investments in an evidence-based manner.
