TETRIS (Trauma emergency thoracotomy for resuscitation in shock) has launched! A national audit and service evaluation of thoracotomy practice in trauma in and out of hospital. Data collection 1st Feb 2022 to 1st Feb 2023. For info, email: TETRISstudy@outlook.com @TETRISstudyUK

@MallinsonT It’s a good question, we felt it was going to be logistically incredibly challenging to have every UK hospital signed up for what is likely a low frequency occurrence. However we are looking at way to try capture this data too

@tetrisstudy Out of interest - why have you ruled out non-MTCs?

@KirstyChallen Great! Drop us an email we will be delighted to have you on board!

@tetrisstudy Royal Preston on the way, just let me get to my email properly!

We are incredibly excited as tomorrow marks the start of our 12 month data collection period. We have almost every MTC in the county signed up as well as every UK HEMS service!

@HawkmoonHEMS We are looking to publish it, watch this space.
