Abstract：The development of trauma surgery in China has made great achievements during the past 30 years.The urban trauma centers established in Chongqing,Beijing,Wuhan and Hangzhou play a leading and exem-plary role in the discipline construction of trauma care.The trauma care system of"China model"also has been ini-tially established,the theoretical basis and an academic platform for trauma surgery have been set up,and the basic theories and technical principles,key theories and core technology of trauma care have been summarized.The trau-ma care ability,especially for severe multiple injuries,have been improved significantly.However,a complete na-tional network of trauma care system has not yet been established in China,and the overall treatment level for trauma is still lagging behind the developed countries.In order to achieve the goal of"healthy China 2030",to increase the average life expectancy to 79 years by year 2030,the development of trauma surgery may face great historical oppor-tunities and challenges.
