    Summary

    Early prediction of patient outcomes after severe trauma is possible using lactate:pyruvate ratios, serum glucose, and base excess. Later laboratory markers show differences between survivors and nonsurvivors from day six onwards.

    Area of Science:

    • Biochemistry
    • Trauma Medicine
    • Critical Care

    Context:

    • Severely traumatized patients face critical health outcomes.
    • Early and late markers for predicting patient prognosis are crucial in trauma care.

    Purpose:

    • To identify early biochemical markers for predicting the vital outcome in severely traumatized patients.
    • To compare the utility of early versus late laboratory markers in assessing patient prognosis.

    Summary:

    • Increased lactate:pyruvate ratio, serum glucose, and decreased base excess allow for early prediction of survival in severe trauma.
    • Enzymes, bilirubin, and amino acids show significant differences between survivors and nonsurvivors starting from the sixth day post-trauma.

    Impact:
