Abstract

The aim of this protocol is to achieve a prospective, standardized methodology for reporting results and experiences from major accidents and disasters so that the data can be used for analysis, to compare results, to exchange experiences and for international collaboration in methodological development. Using this form, the authors of the reports retain full credit for the data and the publication of them. At the same time, the data will be available in the journal and on the Internet (www.europeantrauma.net), thus providing the abovementioned possibilities for scientific analysis and development.

Keywords: Disaster protocol; Major incidents; Mass-casualty incidents; Quality assurance.
