RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To analyze factors associated with the development of early and late multiorgan failure (MOF) in trauma patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). METHODS: Spanish Trauma ICU Registry (RETRAUCI). Data collected from 52 trauma ICU between March 2015 and December 2019. We analyzed the incidence, outcomes, and the risk factors associated with early (< 72âh) or late (beyond 72âh) MOF in trauma ICU patients. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze associated factors. RESULTS: After excluding patients with incomplete data, 9,598 trauma ICU patients constituted the study population. Up to 965 patients (10.1%) presented with MOF, distributed by early MOF in 780 patients (8.1%) and late MOF in 185 patients (1.9%). The multivariate analysis showed that early MOF was associated with: ISS ≥ 16 (OR 2.80), hemodynamic instability (OR from 2.03 to 43.05), trauma-associated coagulopathy (OR 2.32), and acute kidney injury (OR 4.10). Late MOF was associated with: age > 65 years (OR 1.52), hemodynamic instability (OR from 1.92 to 9.94), acute kidney injury (OR 4.22), and nosocomial infection (OR 17.23). MOF was closely related to mortality (crude OR (95% CI) 4.77 (4.22-5.40)). CONCLUSIONS: Multiorgan failure was recorded in 10% of trauma ICU patients, with early MOF being the predominant form. Early and late MOF forms were associated with different risk factors, suggesting different pathophysiological pathways. Early MOF was associated with higher severity of injury and severe bleeding-related complications and late MOF with advanced age and nosocomial infection.

INTRODUCTION: Acute kidney injury (AKI) constitutes a common complication after severe trauma. Our objective was to analyse the associated risk factors and outcomes of AKI in a large, multicentre sample of trauma ICU patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Observational, prospective and multicentre nationwide registry (RETRAUCI). We included all patients admitted to the participating ICUs from November 2013 to May 2017. We analysed the impact of AKI evaluated by the Risk, Injury, Failure, Loss of kidney function and End-stage kidney disease (RIFLE) definition. Comparison of groups was performed using Wilcoxon test, Chi-Square Test or Fisher's exact test as appropriate. A multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to analyse associated factors to the development of AKI. Logistic regression was used to calculate AKI-related mortality. A P value<0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS: During the study period, 5882 trauma patients were admitted. Complete data were available for 5740 patients. Among them, 871 had AKI (15.17%), distributed by RIFLE R 458 (7.98%), RIFLE I 234 (4.08%) and RIFLE F 179 (3.12%). Associated risk factors were: age (OR 3.05), haemodynamic instability (OR 2.90 to OR 8.34 depending on the severity of hypotension), coagulopathy (OR 1.82), rhabdomyolysis (OR 4.67) and AIS abdomen (OR 1.54). AKI was associated with mortality (crude OR 1.93 (1.59-2.36)), even after adjusting by potential confounders (adjusted OR 1.40 (1.13-1.73)). CONCLUSION: In our large sample of trauma ICU patients we found an incidence of AKI of 15%, which was associated with an increased mortality.
