Trauma Program

Quarterly Trauma Program and Registry Data Schedule
Fiscal Year 2026
(July 1, 2025 – June 30, 2026)

Trauma registry downloads are imported into the DPH OEMST ImageTrend Patient Registry. Direct data entry: users enter trauma data directly into the central site; therefore, no downloading is necessary. Download due dates are aligned with the GQIP, TQIP, and NTDB calls for data on the first of the month.

Instructions:

** All quarterly OTCPE and OBCPE reports are due on the 15th per the table below. The online form on the LMS Public Portal will close at the end of the month, allowing for a grace period of 10 business days past the due date.

• All facilities follow the download schedule above.
• All trauma registry data must be validated using the software validation rules and NTDB/TQIP tools prior to completing the records.
• All facilities use QA and IRR processes to verify the quality of their data before downloading data to the central site.
• ESO trauma registry users enter data into the vendor software. Trauma registry records meeting the Georgia Trauma Registry Criteria must be validated, closed, and include the State box = Yes. Users import the ESO trauma registry file into the ImageTrend Patient Registry and verify the submission was successful.

The Georgia Trauma Data Dictionary serves a reference document containing the additional data fields and definition requirements for use by registry vendors to prepare the annual ITDX+GA Extension SDL file. These additional fields are referred to as the Georgia Extensions.

The ITDX+GA Extensions include fields required by the National Trauma Data Standard (NTDS), Trauma Quality Improvement Program (TQIP), ESO International Trauma Data Exchange (ITDX), Georgia Quality Improvement Program (GQIP), and the Georgia Extensions.

The NTDS, TQIP, and vendor specific data dictionaries are to be used in conjunction with this dictionary.

Data fields marked with an asterisk represent the additional fields added to the 2025 Georga Extension data set.
