Research

Allied health research drives evidence-based care, enhances patient outcomes, and fosters innovation in trauma care through improved clinical practices and quality initiatives.

Understanding how human factors affect decision-making will help clinicians make better decisions and perform optimally in trauma management.

The Alfred Traumageriatric Service brings together multidisciplinary clinical care, collaborative research, and international advocacy to improve outcomes for the growing number of older adults affected by traumatic injury across Australia and New Zealand.

Trauma clinical trials are being transformed by technology‑enabled, data‑driven approaches that improve efficiency and research impact

The Alfred Health Trauma Registry and the Australian and New Zealand Trauma Registry are driving greater clinical and research impact through high-quality data, strengthened governance, and emerging data linkage opportunities that enable deeper insights across the trauma system.

This body of research has a focus on management of critical bleeding after trauma during the pre-hospital phase and during resuscitation in-hospital.

Our clinical research programs aimed to improve the current treatments and understanding of spine and traumatic brain conditions.

Our researchers place importance on the effectiveness in the delivery of timely lifesaving interventions such as pleural decompression.

Implementation of an effective Trauma System save lives, beginning with the pre-hospital phase of care through to the in-hospital setting. An integral part of trauma systems development is trauma research support.
