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. RDW values on admission as well as preexisting comorbidities were evaluated.
Urogenital injuries occur in approximately 5-10 % of all severly injured patients. The literature lacks a thorough investigation into the mechanisms of trauma, the analysis of the whole urogenital tract and especially the correlation of thoracic and lumbar spine and pelvic injuries with urogenital injuries. The goal of this study is to provide a thorough investigation into these primary end points in a multicenter study of university hospitals in Germany.
This single-center prospective cohort study conducted at the adult trauma ICU of the Montreal General Hospital (MGH) affiliated with the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) aims to determine the incidence and associated risk factors of augmented renal clearance (ARC) in critically ill trauma patients of 50 years old and above.
In this study patients who were admitted to our hospital with critical injuries were enrolled retrospectively from January 1992 to December 2019. 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.
Scoring systems for use in intensive care unit (ICU) patients have been introduced and developed over the last 30 years. They allow an assessment of the severity of disease and provide an estimate of in-hospital mortality
Pelvic ring fractures carry a high risk for severe bleeding. Expecially bleeding from the posterior ring might result in a fatal course. Different types of external emergency stabilization (EES) are available for the posterior pelvic ring, namely the non-invasive pelvic binder or the invasive pelvic c-clamp. Which stabilization technique is superior, has not been investigated yet.
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.
The purpose of the study is to describe the differences in measurements of viscoelastic tests of coagulation by two different devices in adult trauma patients.
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.
