TI  - Data-driven disaster management requires data: implementation of a military 
      orthopaedic trauma registry.
PG  - 56-61
AB  - The Military Orthopaedic Trauma Registry (MOTR) is a comprehensive joint service 
      registry of military orthopaedic injuries. Conceived in 2006, MOTR is now 
      operational for retrospective data entry and prospective data collection of 
      extremity injuries sustained by U.S. service members serving in current Overseas 
      Contingency Operations. Running in tandem with data from the United States Army 
      Institute of Surgical Research's Joint Theater Trauma Registry (JTTR), MOTR 
      augments the casualty data included in JTTR with additional orthopaedic specific 
      data (i.e., the injury patterns, characteristics, treatment, and complications 
      associated with extremity war injuries). Extremity war injuries are the major 
      clinical burden of the current conflicts. However, the scope of the injuries in 
      detail useful to the orthopaedic researcher has never been prospectively 
      collected. MOTR is designed to fill that gap in extremity trauma research. As 
      such, MOTR represents an evolutionary step in the refinement of data-driven 
      disaster management.
