SVI and ADI identified a similar proportion of patients in high vulnerability or disadvantaged areas. Higher SVI and ADI deciles were associated with longer hospital LOS, and only the 5th SVI decile was associated with in-hospital mortality. Highly disadvantaged or vulnerable areas may have a longer LOS, but SVI and ADI have limited influence on trauma mortality. Continued research on neighborhood and community factors and trauma outcomes is needed.
