National TRACS Software
NATIONAL TRACS® (NTRACS) software is a commercial, microcomputer-based software package for the collection, storage,
analysis and reporting of trauma patient information on an individual, regional and state level. Developed at the request of the American College of
Surgeon's (ACS) Committee on Trauma (COT), the registry is intended to help its participants improve the quality and cost-effectiveness of care and
to aid in outcomes research.
The NATIONAL TRACS Software Development Group contributed significant input, creating a software package with a strong clinical
component.
In February 2005, Digital Innovation and the American College of Surgeons entered into a strategic business
relationship. A part of this relationship agreement is the transition of the NTRACS software product from ACS to DI. DI's expertise in the
development and maintenance of medical software applications, especially trauma registries, is expected to provide a strong technical foundation for
the NTRACS product, as well as maintain a long-term upgrade path for the NTRACS solution.
