The 1st Pan-Asian Trauma Outcome Study (PATOS) Philippines Symposium 2025 was held last July 18–19 at Sotogrande Davao with the theme "Leveraging Data for Building Regional Trauma Care Systems."
It was a meaningful two-day gathering of trauma experts, frontline responders, and health leaders from Korea, Vietnam, Taiwan, Thailand, and the Philippines — all coming together with one shared goal: to strengthen trauma care systems across the region.
The symposium highlighted the importance of coordinated, data-driven approaches in improving outcomes for trauma patients. It also showcased the ongoing efforts in the Philippines and our neighboring countries to improve trauma care through collaboration, shared learning, and innovation.
Thank you to everyone who took part in the discussions and helped push this vital conversation forward. Trauma systems save lives — and together, we’re building stronger ones for our communities.
