Traumatic injuries are the leading cause of
death and disability among people between the ages of 1-44
and the fourth leading cause of death overall. Traumatic injury
is one of our state’s major public health problems.
Wisconsin Statewide Trauma System is an aggressive
response to a major public health problem and the result of
study, planning and the volunteer participation of EMS providers,
trauma care facilities and other healthcare providers.
