Summary
This study analyzed 63 patients with thoracicoabdominal trauma, categorizing them by injury severity and hemodynamic status. Tailored treatment algorithms were developed, aiming to improve outcomes for patients with severe injuries and hemodynamic instability.
Area of Science:
- Trauma Surgery
- Emergency Medicine
- Surgical Critical Care
Context:
- Thoracicoabdominal trauma presents complex challenges in emergency settings.
- Effective management requires stratifying patients based on injury severity and hemodynamic stability.
- Previous approaches may lack tailored diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms for diverse patient subgroups.
Purpose:
- To analyze treatment outcomes for 63 patients with thoracicoabdominal trauma.
- To categorize patients based on injury severity and hemodynamic status.
- To develop and evaluate a curative-diagnostic algorithm for different patient groups.
Summary:
- Patients were classified into three groups: severe trauma with hemodynamic instability (41.25%), severe thoracoabdominal injury with stable hemodynamics (47.62%), and minor injuries (11.12%).
- A specific treatment and diagnostic algorithm was created for each patient category.
- The overall mortality rate in the study cohort was 17.46%.
Impact:
- The study provides a framework for optimizing the management of thoracicoabdominal trauma.
- Implementing tailored algorithms may improve patient outcomes and reduce mortality.
- This research contributes to evidence-based guidelines for emergency surgical care.
