A retrospective cohort study was performed with patients having
been treated at a single surgical hospital at Camp Bastion,
southern Afghanistan. Approval for the MATTERs Study was
established through the UK Joint Medical Command Research
Pillar and the US Army’s Medical Research and Materiel
Command. From January 1, 2009, through December 31,
2010, consecutive patients who received at least 1 unit of PRBCs
within 24 hours of admission following combat-related injury
were identified using the UK Joint Theatre Trauma Registry.
This included all coalition military personnel (designated North
Atlantic Treaty Organization [NATO] military) and Afghan police,
military, and civilians (designated host nationals) (Table1).
Information on US troops treated at this facility during this time
was cross-referenced using the US Joint Theater Trauma Registry.
Patients, regardless of designation, were required to have
stable physiology prior to discharge. In the case of NATO military,
this required stabilization for aeromedical evacuation; host
nationals remained until they were clinically ready to be transferred
to an Afghan national medical facility or to home.
