Patients who decease during hospital stay or transferred to another hospital outside the borders of trauma region Brabant will be excluded.

Subsequently the same items will be measured after 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 months. Outcomes will be assessed using questionnaires. The primary outcome parameters are: short and long term HRQoL, functional and psychological outcome, and Healthcare and societal costs in injured patients.
