OBJECTIVE: Treating traumatic hemorrhage is time sensitive. Prehospital care and transport modes (eg, helicopter and ground) may influence in-hospital events. We hypothesized that prehospital time (on-scene time [OST] and total prehospital time [TPT]) and transport mode are associated with same-day transfusion and mortality. Furthermore, we sought to identify regions of anatomic injury that modify the relationship between prehospital time and outcomes in strata corresponding to transport types...
