How to Request DoDTR Data
The Joint Trauma System (JTS) Department of Defense Trauma Registry (DoDTR) is a population of trauma patients meeting inclusion criteria that includes selected data elements. It is not the patient record. While a query of the DoDTR can identify a population and provide data elements, the investigator may have to conduct a chart review to collect additional data for the protocol. JTS does not assist with access to chart reviews.
- Eligible Requestor. The requestor must be U.S. Military, U.S Government or sponsored by a U.S. Military or Government entity who will accept responsibility for safeguarding the data set and ensure that all applicable DoD and Federal requirements are met by the non-Federal requestor. JTS does not assist non-Federal requestors in finding DoD sponsors. The Defense Health Agency (DHA) requires the end user of the data to be identified.
- How to request data from the DoDTR The following documents will need to be completed prior to submitting to the DHA Data Sharing Agreement Application (DSAA) process:
Common Questions Asked- What data is available in the DoDTR?
- What do I need to request data for a research protocol?
