Brief Summary

Trauma significantly impacts both short- and long-term health outcomes, resulting in substantial mortality. Early identification and risk stratification in trauma patients are crucial for timely medical interventions. The Geriatric Trauma Outcome Score (GTOS), designed by incorporating age, the Injury Severity Score (ISS), and the need for packed red blood cell transfusion, has emerged as a valuable prognostic tool for elderly trauma patients, but its applicability to general trauma patients remains underexplored.

Trauma Patients

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 20 Years - 100 Years
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: No
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

The study cohort included 46,808 trauma patients from the Trauma Registry System, covering the period from 2009 to 2021 Of these, 41,131 were adult patients aged 20 years and older. After excluding patients with burns (n = 1,040), hanging injuries (n = 19), drowning (n = 3), and unavailable laboratory data (n = 1), a final study population of 40,068 patients was analyzed. Within this cohort, there were 818 deaths, and 39,250 patients survived.

You may qualify if:

• The study includes all patients aged equal to or over twenty who had trauma.

You may not qualify if:

• Patients with burns.
• Patients with hangings.
• Patients with drowning.
• Patients with with unavailable laboratory data.
