Burn and Trauma
Timeliness for crash operation within (≤) 60 minutes
Customer centeredness
1. Mortality risk of exsanguinating patient is related to delay in definitive surgery.
2. Refers to KKM policy of waiting time for very urgent surgery.
3. WHO guidelines for essential trauma care 2004.
: Crash operation: Any operation that is required based on rapid deterioration of
hemodynamic status as a direct result of trauma in which if delayed may result in
death and/ or permanent disability.
Within (≤) 60 minutes: Time taken from the referral made to Trauma Unit and
decision made for operation to the time operation commenced.
: Inclusion:
1. Any exsanguinating patient managed/ referred to the Trauma Unit from
Emergency Department.

Burn and Trauma
Minor trauma mortality rate
Effectiveness
1. Trauma mortality is related to severity. The group with minor trauma is
expected to have a high probability of survival and any mortality is a
potentially preventable death.

Severe burn mortality rate
Effectiveness
1. Mortality is correlated with severity of burns and expertise/ facilities available.
2. Mortality index = % burns + age.

can be made.
Severe burns: >20% body surface area.
Mortality: Deaths occur within the same admission.
Inclusion:
1. Burns between 20 – 40% as the primary diagnosis.
Exclusion:
1. Burn associated with inhalational injuries.
2. Age less than 12 years old.
3. Patients who died due to other secondary diagnosis.

Percentage of non-therapeutic laparotomy (NTL) for trauma cases
Effectiveness
1. Unnecessary exploratory laparotomy for intra-abdominal injuries where the
bleeding has already stopped by itself is associated with post-operative
morbidity.
2. These patients can be safely managed with conservative management thus
avoiding the complications of surgery.
Non-therapeutic laparotomy (NTL): Laparotomy performed for suspected intraabdominal injuries where no surgical therapeutic procedure was needed upon
exploration. NTL includes cases where peritoneal washout of haemoperitoneum
was performed and the injured organ has no active bleeding/ does not need
surgical haemostasis or repair.
Inclusion:
1. All trauma cases.
Exclusion:
1. Cases where only a diagnostic laparoscopy was performed.

1. Timeliness in response to a trauma alert determines how fast a patient with
major trauma gets attended to.
2. Trauma alerts in an institution is made for major trauma and within a specified
predetermined clinical situation.
Response time: Time taken from the time cases referred to Trauma Unit to the
time cases reviewed by the Trauma Surgeon.

: Burn and Trauma
: Percentage of patients with duration of surgery within (≤) 90 minutes in
crash trauma laparotomy
: Customer centeredness
: 1. Excessive time taken during conduct of a trauma laparotomy leads to poor
outcome as the haemodynamically unstable patients has little or no
physiological reserves.
2. Decision for damage control procedures need to be made early in the conduct
of the laparotomy.
: Duration of surgery: Time taken from the start of abdominal incision until closure
of wound (by whatever technique e.g. stapler, suture, vacuum assisted closure,
etc).

Burn and Trauma
Percentage of cases with unplanned return to the operating theatre within
the same admission following an elective surgical procedure
Effectiveness
1. Any unplanned return to the operation theatre may indicate a quality problem
due to the occurrence of intra-operative problems that are serious enough to
warrant intervention post-operatively.
Unplanned return: Unexpected return to the operating theatre to address a
previous complication of the original operation.
Inclusion:
1. Elective surgical procedure performed under general anaesthesia.
Exclusion:
1. Endoscopy cases.
