National Major Trauma Registry (NMTR)
The National Major Trauma Registry (NMTR) is a clinical audit for trauma care across England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Ireland. It is the largest European trauma registry and currently holds data on more than 1 million injured patients. It began collecting data in 1990 as the Trauma Audit and Research Network data collection (TARN) and was re-established by NHS England as the National Major Trauma Registry in 2024.
Why we collect trauma data
Traumatic injury is a global burden and contributes significantly to death and disability across the UK. For every trauma death, at least 2 people are left with severe and permanent disability and the effects of traumatic injury have considerable long-term implications on the quality of life of its survivors. As a result of traumatic injury, there is also a significant impact upon the associated costs to the NHS.
