Trauma Registry
Participation in the statewide trauma registry is an essential component of a regionalized, accountable, and coordinated trauma system. Designation as a trauma facility in Michigan requires that hospitals participate in the MI trauma registry. ImageTrend®, Inc. provides the data collection software which hosts the Registry.

Using the MI Trauma Registry:

Michgan Hospital Hub:
Prehospital data can be accessed via Hospital Hub. This is a web-based application, supported by BETP that allows facilities direct access to EMS run forms. Hospital Hub allows hospitals to view and download a PDF version of the EMS run form directly into the electronic health record for patients that arrive at the hospital's doors. Hospital Hub creates a more complete picture of the procedures, medications administered, vital signs, etc. recorded up to the point where the care of the patient is transferred to a staff member at their facility. The State of Michigan provides Hospital Hub free of charge. To access Hospital Hub, complete the Data Use Agreement and submit as directed.
