Michigan Trauma Registry

Participation in the statewide trauma registry is an essential component of a regionalized, accountable, and coordinated trauma system. Designation as a trauma facility in Michigan requires that hospitals participate in the MI trauma registry. ImageTrend®, Inc. provides the data collection software which hosts the Registry.

Using the MI Trauma Registry:

Trauma facilities may use the ImageTrend® software at no cost to directly enter trauma data into the Registry or import data from another software. The National Trauma Data Standard (NTDS) elements are the minimum data set required to be entered into the Registry. Data may be added to the Registry at any time, but is due quarterly.
