The Trauma Audit & Research Network (TARN) is a collaboration of hospitals from all over England, Wales, Ireland and other parts of Europe which supports a group of staff on a non-profit making basis; based at the University of Manchester and Salford Royal NHS Foundation Trust. TARN aims to collect and analyse clinical and epidemiological data and thereby to provide a statistical base to support clinical audit, to aid the development of trauma services and to inform the research agenda.
The Greater Manchester Academic Centre for Acute Care and Trauma (GM-aCAT) has been designed to develop and foster strategic partnerships to deliver world-class trauma services underpinned by research, education and training.
