RESUMO

Background: Identifying the severity of trauma to provide timely and adequate treatment and predict the prognosis are some of the significant challenges in trauma management. Increased red blood cell distribution width (RDW) is associated with several pathologies and associated mortality. This study aims to evaluate the RDW in predicting 24 h and 30-day mortality among multiple trauma patients. Methods: In this retrospective study, multiple trauma patients with ISS ≤16 were included. Blood samples of the patients were collected at 1 h and 24 h of the referral to determine RDW. Demographic data, 24 h and 30-day mortality, injury severity score (ISS), and RDW outcomes were evaluated for all the patients. Results: Of the 300 patients included in the study, 52 patients died in the first 24 h, and 85 patients within 30 days. One hour and 24 h RDW were not significantly different in 30-day mortality patients, P=0.104 and P=0.156, respectively. RDW in 30-day mortality patients was not significantly different at 1 h and 24 h, P-value=0.875. The means ISS in 24 h, 30-day mortality and survivors was significantly different, P<0.001. Conclusion: Our study does not report a significant increase in RDW among 24 h and 30-day mortality and survivor patients. ISS was significantly different among the two groups.

RESUMO

Background: Vascular trauma injuries are associated significantly with disabilities and mortality where prompt diagnosis and management are of great importance. Objectives: In this study, the authors aim to evaluate the pattern of vascular trauma injuries. Methods: This descriptive retrospective study was performed on patients with vascular injuries due to trauma referred to (Shohada Ashayer Hospital and Shahid Chamran Hospital, Khorramabad). Patients' files were evaluated for the following data: diagnostics, types of treatment and outcome, type of trauma, cause of trauma, anatomy of the injured site, duration of surgery, type of lesion, delayed complication, and requirement of revision surgery. The data obtained were descriptively evaluated using SPSSv22. Results: Of 233 patients studied, 95.3% were males. The mean age of the patients was 29.15±11.8 years. 82.8% of patients presented with penetrating trauma whereas 32.2% of patients had stab wound trauma. The most common sign at the time of referral was a loss of sensation in 54.9% of patients. Direct diagnosis based on clinical presentation was made in 79% of patients. The upper extremity was the most common site of vascular injury in 77.3% of patients with the involvement of radial and ulnar arteries, in 63.1%. 66.9% of patients underwent primary vascular repair, 92 received revision surgery, and 69 required blood transfusion. Conclusion: Epidemiological studies of vascular injury can help clinicians and local healthcare centres to understand the pattern of vascular trauma based on the geographical location and train trauma surgeons and medical staff to provide effective and timely management.
