Filter by:In this study patients who were admitted to our hospital with critical injuries were enrolled retrospectively from January 2012 to December 2015. Patients with an ISS>16 points, an AIS >3 in one body region and at least 2 different body regions affected were included. Possible prognostic factors were evaluated.
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a common complication of severe trauma patients and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality.Trauma patients have many risk factors for AKI such as hypovolemic shock, rhabdomyolysis, massive transfusion, major surgeries and abdominal compartment syndrome.The primary outcome of the study is to correlate between the AKI by using RIFLE criteria and the trauma severity by using ISS .The secondary outcomes are ;the length of ICU and hospital stay and 28 days mortality in AKI patients.
It is unknown whether this evolved strategy (Pre-Hospital Zone I P-REBOA) is feasible and with an acceptable safety profile. This study will address this question, therefore informing the design of a prospective multicentre exploratory cohort study followed by a pilot/feasibility multicenter RCT (IDEAL 2B). The IDEAL Framework is an internationally recognised standard, that describes the stages through which interventional therapy innovation normally passes, the characteristics of each stage and the study design types recommended for each
The purpose of the study is to describe the differences and interchangeability in measurements of viscoelastic tests of coagulation by two different devices in adult trauma patients.
The aim of the analysis is an evaluation of the current performance of the Swiss Trauma Registry (STR) with respect to providing a reliable basis for (scientific) investigations on the management of trauma patients in Switzerland. The current project tries to address this question by considering central aspects of completeness and by exemplifying the use of the registry for research questions. The aim is to identify potential shortcomings of the registry.
Pelvic fractures are severe injuries which require advanced orthopedic surgical skills to treat. On the other hand, abdominal injuries are severe injuries, which might require quick general surgical treatment. The combination of both injuries is a challenge for orthopedic surgeons, as the abdominal injury might lead to a delayed surgical treatment of the pelvic fracture. Whether an associated abdominal injury influences the quality of care of pelvic fractures, is aim of this registry study.
The use of conditioning open-label placebo (COLP) will be studied as a dose extension method to lower opioid dosage in patients with spinal cord injury, polytrauma, and burn injury. The goal is to provide the same level of pain relief with a reduced opioid dose to diminish adverse effects as well as the risk of addiction associated with narcotic treatment.
Introduction- Gun violence represents an important cause of disability to the working age population in South Africa. It has unrecognised, but undoubtedly significant implications for the health service and patients affected by these injuries. Aim- To capture the burden of gunshot injury across South Africa and to establish a network of researchers in this field. Method- A cross-sectional observational study run across South Africa capturing a nationwide picture of burden and complications associated with these injuries. Each centre will participate in a two-week window of patient screening and recruitment. Patients will be followed up at 6 weeks as per routine clinical practice. Data collected will include nature and number of treatments, length of stay, return to work and complications. Results-Outcome of the study will be disseminated to the participating centres, relevant health boards and published with all contributors across centres recognised.
In this mono-center pilot trial, polytrauma patients admitted to intensive care will be included. Investigators are going to take blood and muscle samples at respecified time points to do metabolic, histological and molecular testing. Aim of the study is to investigate (1) changes of the blood metabolome in patients with ICUAW (intensive care unit acquired weakness) and (2) identify metabolic components who are responsible for ICUAW or can be used as marker for ICUAW.
This is a single-center, not-randomized, open-label, controlled pilot clinical trial. This study compares presence of Trauma Induced Coagulopathy (TIC) and acute traumatic hemorrhage treatment at pre-hospital phase of care with red blood cells (RBC), Tranexamic acid (TXA) and Fibrinogen Concentrate (FC) with the current treatment based on the administration of Crystalloids and TXA.
