- Abstract
- Purpose: We investigated how prehospital, emergency room (ER), and delta shock indices (SI) correlate with outcomes including mortality in patients with polytrauma.
Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 1,275 patients who visited the emergency department from January 2015 to April 2018. A total of 628 patients were enrolled in the study. Patients were divided into survivor and non-survivor groups, and logistic regression analysis was used to investigate independent risk factors for death. Pearson coefficient analysis and chi-square test were used to examine the significant relationship between SI and clinical progression markers.
Results: Of 628 enrolled patients, 608 survived and 27 died. Multivariate logistic regression analysis reveals “age” (p＜0.001; OR, 1.068), “pre-hospital SI ＞0.9” (p＜0.001; OR, 11.629), and “delta SI ≥0.3” (p＜0.001; OR, 12.869) as independent risk factors for mortality. Prehospital and ER SIs showed a significant correlation with hospital and intensive care unit length of stay and transfusion amount. Higher prehospital and ER SIs (＞0.9) were associated with poor clinical progression.
Conclusions: SI and delta SI are significant predictors of mortality in patients with polytrauma. Moreover, both prehospital and ER SIs can be used as predictive markers of clinical progression in these patients. - Keywords : Shock index; Trauma; Mortality; Biomarkers
