New Zealand trauma guidelines
The Guidelines for a Structured Approach to the Provision of Optimal Trauma Care (PDF 2.88MB) is the national guideline document in circulation in New Zealand. These guidelines were initially developed in 1994 by RACS with support from the Ministry of Health and updated in 1996 and 2003. The 2012 revision was funded by the Health Quality and Safety Commission and undertaken by the RACS New Zealand Trauma Committee.
