Traffic accident patients had a high survival rate at 1 month. We identified three factors regarding EMS treatment which were related to increased survival: a prehospital responsive level of consciousness, no prehospital airway management, and no prehospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Therefore, the development of standard guidelines for the management of traffic accident patients by EMS is crucial to increase the survival rate of traffic accident patients.
