Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

In this study patients who were admitted to our hospital with critical injuries were enrolled retrospectively from January 2012 to December 2015. Patients with an ISS>16 points, an AIS >3 in one body region and at least 2 different body regions affected were included. Possible prognostic factors were evaluated.
