In Spain, major trauma continues to be the leading cause of death among young people. However, mortality rates represent only a relatively small part of the impact of trauma injuries on the health of the population. Pain and anxiety are two of the most poorly controlled factors that have a huge impact on a patient's quality of life.The type of therapy that has been shown to be most effective in treating post-traumatic pain is one that involves different specialists, given its multicausality, care should be multidisciplinary. This investigation project consists in an observational study performed by a multidisciplinary team in our center. Major trauma patients with moderate, severe or incapacitating pain will be referred to consultations specialized in chronic pain and psychology. One year after the trauma, patients will be evaluated in terms of quality of life. The aim of this study is to determinate the impact that multidisciplinary treatment of post-traumatic pain has on the perception of quality of life in severely injured patients.
