Management of abdominal gunshot wounds (AGW) can be complex. Immediate surgical treatment guided by the PATI score in 49 patients showed low mortality (2%) and morbidity (6%), suggesting its effectiveness.

Area of Science:

  • Trauma Surgery
  • Surgical Management
  • Emergency Medicine

Context:

  • Abdominal gunshot wounds (AGW) present significant challenges in patient care.
  • Optimal management strategies for AGW remain a subject of debate.
  • This study evaluates a specific approach to treating AGW.

Purpose:

  • To assess the efficacy of the PATI score in predicting outcomes for patients with abdominal gunshot wounds.
  • To report on the outcomes of surgical management for AGW.
  • To determine the correlation between the PATI score and patient morbidity and mortality.

Summary:

  • A cohort of 49 patients with abdominal gunshot wounds (AGW) underwent surgical treatment.
  • The PATI score was utilized for trauma identification in all cases.

  • Laparoscopy was minimally employed, with surgery being the primary intervention.

    • Impact:

    • The study found a strong correlation between the PATI score and patient outcomes.
    • Low rates of morbidity (6%) and mortality (2%) were observed.
    • Immediate surgical resuscitation is suggested to improve survival and reduce complications in AGW patients.
