Abstract / Description of output

The TraumAID system has been designed to provide on-line decision support throughout the initial definitive management of injured patients. Here we describe its retrospective evaluation and the use we subsequently made of judges comments on the validation data to evaluate TraumaTIQ, a new critiquing interface for TraumAID, investigating the question of whether, with timely recording of information, a system could produce commentary in line with that of human experts. Our results show that (1) comparable commentary can be produced, and (2) validation studies, which take great time and effort to conduct, can produce useful data beyond their original design goals.
