Three Integrated Trauma Systems Care (SIAT) are present in Emilia-Romagna.

The SIAT works according to Hub & Spoke model: severe and resource-consuming patients are centralized in first level Hubs to guarantee high quality and efficient care. Every SIAT has a Trauma Center (Hub) connected with a net of peripheral hospitals (Spokes)

The main goal of a SIAT is to organise and manage trauma care pathways, to enable quick and adequate treatments in the same way everywhere.
