The level of management of traumatic health care services in Albania as a service of the Military University Hospital in Emergency Care differs in relation to other university hospitals across the country, mainly due to changes in the public health of the population. The article aims to present the management of traumatic patients at the Military Hospital in Albania, providing examples of the number of cases that have been addressed in the spread of this disease as epidemiology in Albania. The literature review and data statistics will be carried out by using the hospital records that will be used for further research in Albania. In addition, there is a study of international reports on Trauma management issues, trauma care and quality in Trauma. Much of the results consider the necessity of adopting a comprehensive traumatic system, focusing on quality management and improving trauma care to increase survival and reduce complications to the wounded. Urban conditions and public health policies are the most important factors in developing and implementing programs to improve emergency trauma care services. The heterogeneity of the population and its geographical distribution, the complexity of road accidents, are challenging factors for quantitative research on trauma management and the effectiveness of its care. Staff training in all areas, combined with the existence of modern vehicles and equipment, means of communication and timely transfer of the ambulance, contribute to the treatment of patients with urgent trauma, life saving and prevention of all types of disabilities.
