Abstract

Emergency medical technicians can take instant photographs of motor vehicle crashes quickly, in adverse weather, and under varying lighting conditions, and the area and severity of vehicle damage can be determined from photographs better than from EMS reports. This scientific poster presentation determines whether instant photographs can be assessed by trauma care providers to predict the injury severity of vehicle occupants.
