A great example of integration of research into emergency care to address a key evidence gap. We may think we known how to treat trauma pneumothorax, but the CoMiTED Trial will give the answer!

We have had a strong start to March, with 5 patients recruited in 7 days! Thank you Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells Hospitals 💙, Milton Keynes University Hospital NHS FT, Cambridge University Hospitals NHS, West Suffolk NHS FT 🏳️‍🌈 & University Hospitals Birmingham 🌟. Great to see University Hospitals Birmingham randomise their first patient! #218

🤩 Kate Coates visited Cambridge University Hospitals NHS today to talk all things CoMiTED at their research day EURECA

Final talk before lunch - Dr. James Price summarising his experience as an NIHR Research API Scheme with CoMiTED Trial at Cambridge University Hospitals NHS #EUReCa2024

This trial seems to be steaming ahead.
We really don’t know whether a chest drain is required in trauma pneumothorax - so randomising to this trial seems to be the most ethical treatment for the patient.

Appreciation post‼️ Amazing work from the team at University Hospitals Dorset NHS Foundation Trust who recruited 2 patients in 1 day recently - the first trauma unit to do so! A big thank you to Research at North Bristol NHS Trust also who have randomised 4 patients so far during February 👏🏼

This is amazing 🤩. CoMITED has definitely had challenges but the engagement of all sites (and indeed our willing patients) means we have a great chance of reaching or target. Can’t quite believe we have reached the 200 mark!!
