Our study estimates improved compliance of antibiotic administration after implementation of MARTY after adjusting for encounter characteristics. Findings from this study demonstrate improved compliance, but this compliance is often still lacking in those with higher injury severity scores. Findings from this study may be used to inform approaches to further improve trauma care.
