A binational trauma registry is urgently needed to benchmark injury management to improve outcomes for injured patients.enHumansWounds and InjuriesHospitalizationRegistriesAustraliaNew ZealandOutcome Assessment, Health CareJournal article002006186310.5694/j.1326-5377.2006.tb00668.x0002424813000112-s2.0-3375104873551994
