National Trauma Data Bank
Okay kiddo, so the National Trauma Data Bank (NTDB) is like a big book that collects information about accidents people get into that cause very serious injuries, like when someone is hurt in a car crash or falls from a high place.
This big book is made up of information from hospitals all across the United States that treat these kinds of injuries. Doctors and nurses at these hospitals keep track of important details like how the injury happened, how severe it is, and what kinds of medical treatments were used to help the person heal.
The NTDB helps researchers and doctors learn more about these kinds of injuries, which can help them find new and better ways to treat people who get hurt really badly. It's like a big library filled with information about how to help people who have been in accidents!
