The Injured Trauma Survivor Screen (ITSS) is a validated tool designed to identify trauma patients at risk, facilitating early psychiatric intervention. However, there is limited information on the types of psychiatric recommendations given following positive screenings. This study compares the frequency of positive ITSS and treatment recommendations between blunt and penetrating trauma at a Level 1 urban center.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      We conducted a retrospective chart review of trauma patients (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n<\/jats:italic>\n                      = 727) screened with the ITSS between August 2023-July 2024.
