RESUMEN
Introducción. La población mundial crece y con ello los accidentes de tránsito, incrementando la morbimortalidad. La combinación de factores clínicos y paraclínicos mediante las escalas de trauma impacta en los desenlaces al permitir tomar acciones oportunas. Métodos. Estudio de corte transversal en el que se incluyeron pacientes con lesiones por colisión en accidentes de tránsito, atendidos entre 2017 y 2018, en urgencias del Hospital Universitario San José de Popayán, Colombia, un hospital de alta complejidad. Se recolectaron variables sociodemográficas y biológicas y se aplicaron tres escalas de trauma, Revised Trauma Score, Injury SeverityScore y New Injury Severity Score. Posteriormente, se evaluó su rendimiento para predecir mortalidad. Resultados. Se atendieron en el servicio de urgencias 650 pacientes con lesiones en accidentes de tránsito y se presentaron 16 muertes. Al evaluar el rendimiento de las escalas de trauma se encontró que la sensibilidad para mortalidad varía entre el 75 % para Revised Trauma Score y el 93,8 % para Injury Severity Score y New Injury Severity Score, con una especificidad que varía entre 89,1 % y 96,8 %. Se identificó que la mejor razón de verosimilitud positiva fue para Revised Trauma Score, mientras que la mejor razón de verosimilitud negativa fue para Injury Severity Scorey New Injury Severity Score. Conclusiones. Los resultados evidencian un adecuado rendimiento de las escalas de trauma evaluadas para predecir mortalidad. La escala que presentó mejor rendimiento fue Injury Severity Score por su sensibilidad, especificidad y razón de verosimilitud positiva.
ABSTRACT
Background. The global population is on the rise and with such motor vehicle collisions, increasing the morbidity and mortality of individuals implicated in traffic accidents. The combination of clinical and paraclinical factors, as done by the different trauma scales, have an impact upon morbidity and mortality by allowing timely actions.Methods. Cross-sectional study that included patients with collision injuries in traffic accidents, treated at an emergency department from 2017 to 2018 at Hospital Universitario San José in Popayán, Colombia, a high-complexity hospital. The study defined the universe, collected sociodemographic and biological variables, and applied three trauma scales Revised Trauma Score, Injury Severity Score, and New Injury Severity Score. Subsequently, its performance in predicting mortality was evaluated. Results. Six-hundred-fifty patients with collision injuries were treated in the emergency department with lesions due to collisions in traffic accidents; 16 deaths were reported. We found that the sensitivity varies between 75% for the Revised Trauma Score to 93.8% for the Injury Severity Score and the New Injury Severity Score. Likewise, an adequate specificity varying from 89,1% for the Injury Severity Score to 96,8% for the Revised Trauma Score. The best positive likelihood ratio was for the Revised Trauma Score. The negative likelihood ratios for the Injury Severity Score and the New Injury Severity Score were adequate.Conclusion. The results show an adequate performance of the trauma scales evaluated to predict mortality. The scale that presented the best performance was Injury Severity Score due to its sensitivity, specificity and positive likelihood ratio.
