EuTCoDaS  –  European Trauma Core Data Set 2025

As part of a doctoral research project aimed at updating the Utstein Trauma Template, an expert panel was established comprising representatives from predominantly European trauma registries. The objective was to critically evaluate the existing recommended core dataset and to develop an updated dataset through a three-round Delphi process. A total of 46 experts from 22 countries and 19 trauma registries participated in the expert panel.
