Resumo

Injury is a leading cause of death and disability globally. After an acute hospitalization for an injury, a care transition model has been shown to reduce mortality and morbidity but these are uncommon in a low and middle income setting. When planning a post hospitalization care plan, many health management factors should be taken into account as they can impact outcome. This manuscript delineates a 5 Domains of Healthcare Management or ‘5 Domains’ which should be addressed in this care transition model. The literature behind each of these domains and their impact on post hospitalization outcomes along with a case study of a care transition plan for a low income country is described.
