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. RDW values on admission as well as preexisting comorbidities were evaluated.

polytraumatized patients Patients with an ISS >16 points, an AIS >3 in one body region and at least 2 different body regions affected were included. |
Other: retrospective
The investigators retrospectively analyzed the short- and long-term outcome in polytraumatized patients and the possible influence of RDW values on admission as well as preexisting comorbidities on these outcomes.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- In-hospital mortality in polytraumatized patients [January 2012 to December 2015]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Possible influence of RDW values (%) on admission on the long-term outcome [January 2012 to December 2015]
The influence of RDW Values (%) in polytraumatized patients on admission on the long-term outcome (late-phase death (days)) will be examined.
