National Trauma Institute

To reduce injury, death and disability by:

    Elevating trauma on the national research agenda

       Increasing scientific knowledge related to trauma,
         burns and injury prevention

       Changing clinical practice throughout the state, nation
        and world

To stop unnecessary suffering from trauma through prevention, education and research, and ultimately decrease rates of death and disability in trauma patients. NTI will be recognized as the premiere grant-making institution for translational trauma research.

This year, 170,000 Americans will die from a traumatic injury. Trauma is the #1 cause of death for children and adults ages 1 to 44.

Hemorrhage, or massive bleeding, is responsible for
nearly half of those deaths and for the majority of preventable deaths of our soldiers in Iraq
and Afghanistan.

Several medical solutions have the potential to control massive bleeding, but without adequate funding for further development and clinical trials, life-saving treatments are elusive dreams.

Help Fund Hemorrhage Research Today, and Stop the Bleeding.
