Regarding intubation, there was a trend towards more civilians needing it than military personnel and significantly more children than adults underwent intubation (OR (95% Cl) 51 (5.2 to 498.5)). Gunshot wounds (GSW) occurred in 30% of the patients. Civilians patients had a lower OR for GSWs than military patients (OR (95% CI) 0.35 (0.1 to 1.1)). Other trends in injury types and treatment were apparent but did not reach significance due to the small number of patients.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Both civilians and military personnel benefitted from the in-theatre Role 1 medical facility treatment.
