The aim of this study is to identify changes in vascular trauma patterns over the two study periods and compare these changes with international literature.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Methods<\/jats:title>All individuals presenting to RPH<\/jats:styled-content> between J<\/jats:styled-content>anuary 2000 and D<\/jats:styled-content>ecember 2010 with vascular injury were identified from a prospective trauma database for this descriptive study. Injuries were classified using the Abbreviated Injury Score (AIS<\/jats:styled-content>).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Results<\/jats:title>The incidence of vascular trauma as a percentage of total trauma increased over the two study periods. The current 10\u2010year study included 45\u2009164 patients on the trauma database, of which 1205 patients (2.6%) sustained 1335 vascular injuries, an increase from 1% in the previous 5\u2010year study at the same facility. Males aged 20\u201329 years were more frequently injured. Blunt trauma occurred more frequently than penetrating. The extremities, particularly the upper limbs were most commonly injured. The most common causes of injury for each region were as follows; motorbike crash (MBC<\/jats:styled-content>), motor vehicle crash (MVC<\/jats:styled-content>) and stabbing (neck, thorax and abdomen), MBC<\/jats:styled-content> and MVC<\/jats:styled-content> (lower limb) and piercing injuries (upper limb). Injury Severity Score (ISS<\/jats:styled-content>) and mortality 43% (32 of 75) were highest for thoracic injuries, particularly thoracic aorta injury. Mortality rate has decreased.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Conclusion<\/jats:title>Vascular injuries in W<\/jats:styled-content>estern A<\/jats:styled-content>ustralia are increasing. MVC<\/jats:styled-content> are the most common cause of life threatening injury. Road safety interventions targeting young males are likely to reduce trauma.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/ans.12309","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,7,16]],"date-time":"2013-07-16T11:06:37Z","timestamp":1373972797000},"page":"173-178","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Vascular trauma in W<\/scp>estern A<\/scp>ustralia: a comparison of two study periods over 15 years"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"86","author":[{"given":"Jikol","family":"Friend","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of General and Vascular Surgery Royal Perth Hospital Perth Western Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sudhakar","family":"Rao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of General and Vascular Surgery Royal Perth Hospital Perth Western Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kishore","family":"Sieunarine","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of General and Vascular Surgery Royal Perth Hospital Perth Western Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Paul","family":"Woodroof","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Departments of General and Vascular Surgery Royal Perth Hospital Perth Western Australia Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,7,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1440-1622.2001.02165.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0039-6109(03)00150-6"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ejvs.2007.09.010"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/ejvs.1999.0857"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00005373-199206000-00012"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"848","DOI":"10.1177\/000313480306901006","article-title":"Vascular injuries to the extremities in a suburban trauma centre","volume":"69","author":"Diamond S","year":"2003","journal-title":"Am.
