Presentation
RESULTS: Out of the 1,871 injured patients, 810 (43.3%) presented with a single injury. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Entire Body System
- Hypothermia
The management of hypothermia, acidosis, blood products, and adjuvant therapy showed regional as well as institutional variability, and surprisingly few massive transfusion protocols specifically address these issues. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Musculoskeletal
- Fracture
fracture, displaced bilateral multifragmental growth plate fractures of both tibiae, fractures of both fibulae, displaced fracture of left forearm, and displaced supracondylar fracture of the humerus. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Contusion
Diagnosis of lung contusion is performed by early posttraumatic multislice computed tomography. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Workup
The definitive management plan based on a completed diagnostic workup was devised after 47 minutes (IQR, 37-59) in group I and after 82 minutes (IQR, 66-110) in group II. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
A complete revision of the first edition, this book presents the most current concepts of chiropractic diagnostic workup, injury mechanisms, patient management, and prognosis of cervical and soft tissue injuries caused by automobile crashes. [books.google.com]
Serum
- Hyperglycemia
BACKGROUND: Recent literature demonstrates hyperglycemia to be common in patients with trauma and associated with poor outcome in patients with traumatic brain injury and critically ill patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
This study reviewed randomized and nonrandomized studies that (1) compared early and delayed treatment or early treatment and DCO and (2) reported the incidence of ARDS, mortality rate, or LOS. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
Abstract PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to study the use of soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR) for the prognosis of multiple organ dysfunction (MOF) after multiple traumas. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The currently popular indices of injury severity do not define multiple trauma but do provide a formula to relate the magnitude of injury to the prognosis of the patient. [link.springer.com]
Etiology
Inflammatory pseudotumor is a rare disease, that is regarded as a benign reactive inflammatory process, although its etiology and pathogenesis are still unknown. [iris.univr.it]
Epidemiology
LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Epidemiologic study, level III. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Brussels: Center for Research on the Epidemiology of Disasters, Université catholique de Louvain; 2009. [ccforum.biomedcentral.com]
A comprehensive description of the injury is valuable from clinical, epidemiological, and injury prevention perspectives. [injuryprevention.bmj.com]

Prevention
Strict cardiac monitoring following multiple trauma will prevent serious or even fatal outcome of cardiac injury. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
