Trauma Outcomes and UroGenital Health in OEF/OIF (TOUGH)- A Retrospective Cohort Study with Long-Term Follow-Up

Abstract

This past year has focused on validating the DoDTR database records that identified service members who sustained GU injury. The validation included comparison with medical records in the Armed Forces Health Longitudinal Technology Application (AHLTA) system; this phase is almost completed. Our preliminary findings are that less than 9 percent of DoDTR records with an indication of GU injury actually presented with no verified injury; a lower percent than originally anticipated.
