TNS should pioneer the creation of a dedicated trauma group to ensure coordination among neurosurgeons in future disasters. Minimize confusion during critical moments, the trauma group will have a regional structure, with smaller subagencies assigned distinct roles and responsibilities. Standardized triage and patient management practices, as defined in the created guidelines, will ensure consistency in trauma response across the board. The wealth of knowledge gained from field experiences will be shared through these guidelines, providing valuable insights for future generations.
