Adapting and implementing a pre-hospital trauma program for community health responders: A pilot study from rural Nepal.

Introduction: Effective pre-hospital care is critical for improving trauma outcomes, yet pre-hospital systems are underdeveloped in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs) like Nepal, where trauma-related deaths are rising.

This pilot study assessing the feasibility and preliminary impact of CHR based program in rural Nepal.
