Venous glucose, serum lactate and base deficit as biochemical predictors of mortality in patients with polytrauma.
BACKGROUND The trauma and injury severity score (TRISS) and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation IV (APACHE IV) are accurate but complex. This study aimed to compare venous glucose, levels of serum lactate, and base deficit in polytraumatized patients as simple parameters to predict the mortality in these patients versus (TRISS) and (APACHE IV). METHODS This was a comparative cross-...

Background: The present study assesses independent predictors of clinically important traumatic brain injury (ciTBI) in order to design a prognostic rule for identification of high risk children with mild head injury. Materials and Methods: In a retrospective cross-sectional study, 3,199 children with mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) brought to emergency ward of three hospitals in Tehran, Iran...

متن کاملLactate as Predictor of Mortality in Polytrauma
BACKGROUND The lactate is a product of anaerobic metabolism; it can be used as a marker on demand and availability of oxygen. Changes in lactate levels can be effectively used as a marker in resuscitation maneuvers, even in patients with stable vital signs. AIM To verify the lactate clearance as a predictor of mortality in trauma patients, in need of intensive care. METHOD A total of 851 pa...
