National University Hospital unveils new centre for trauma care

The facility introduces a code to accelerate trauma response and decision-making.

Singapore’s National University Hospital (NUH) has announced the launch of its new centre focused on providing trauma care to vulnerable groups, particularly children, older adults, and migrant workers.

According to the NUH, the centre adopts a code designed to reduce the required duration of transferring a patient from the emergency department to an operating theatre.

Code Trauma’s implementation allows the mobilisation of essential parties, including emergency physicians, nurses, surgeons, and anesthesiologists, to accelerate decision-making and response for patients with polytrauma or multiple injuries.

“The National University Centre for Trauma represents decades of efforts in refining our trauma care expertise, for our injured patients to return to their lives and achieve their dreams,” Centre Director of the National University Centre for Trauma, Raj Menon, said.

“It also aims to prevent trauma from occurring in the first place with data-driven injury prevention efforts,” Menon added.

In line with this, the hospital has rolled out a multi-disciplinary clinic that provides services for recovering trauma patients and conducts meetings aimed towards enhancing care, rehabilitation, and psychosocial recovery pathways.

We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
