Background: The incidence of abdominal trauma is still underreported from the Arab Middle-East. We aimed to evaluate incidence, causes, clinical presentation, and outcome patients in a newly established center. Materials Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted at only level I center Qatar for admitted with (2008-2011). Patients demographics, mechanism injury, pattern organ injuries, associated extra-abdominal Injury Severity Score (ISS), Abbreviated Scale, complications, length...
Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a fatal aggressive infectious disease. We aimed to assess the major contributing factors of mortality in NF patients. A retrospective study was conducted at single surgical intensive care unit between 2000 and 2013. Patients were categorized into 2 groups based on their in-hospital outcome (survivors versus non-survivors). During a14-year period, 331 patients admitted with mean age 50.8 ± 15.4 years 74 % them males Non-survivors (26 %) 14.5 older (p = 0.001) had...
Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a devastating soft tissue infection associated with potentially poor outcomes. The Laboratory Risk Indicator for Fasciitis (LRINEC) score has been introduced as diagnostic tool NF. We aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of LRINEC scoring in NF patients.A retrospective analysis was conducted patients who were admitted between 2000 and 2013. Based on points, classified into (Group 1: < 6 Group 2: ≥ 6). 2 groups analyzed compared. Primary outcomes hospital...

Methods A retrospective analysis data obtained from different units in a single center Qatar over 3-month period 2012. total 101 patients who underwent surgery followed regimes for prophylaxis as per hospital guidelines were included study. Results The overall use was 89%, whereas current did not match recommended protocols 53.5% cases. Prolonged...
Occupational injuries remain an important unresolved issue in many of the developing and developed countries. We aimed to outline causes, characteristics, measures impact occupational among different ethnicities.We reviewed literatures using PUBMED, MEDLINE, Google Scholar EMBASE search engine words: "Occupational injuries" "workplace" between 1984 2014.Incidence fatal decreased over time However, it increased migrant, foreign born ethnic minority workers certain high risk industries....
Traumatic diaphragmatic injury (TDI) is usually associated with multiple injuries. We aimed to evaluate the patterns, injuries, and predictors of in-hospital mortality patients TDI.The trauma registry from a Primary Adult Resource Center for Trauma was queried admitted TDI January 1995 December 2009. Patient characteristics, mechanism injury, management, outcomes were analyzed. compared morbidity in left right injuries (LDI RDI, respectively).Of 773 patients, 650 male (84%), mean (SD) age 33...
Background: This study was designed to identify the incidence, injury patterns, and actual medical costs of occupational-related falls in Qatar, order provide a reference for establishing fall prevention guidelines recommendations.Settings Design: Retrospective database registry review Level 1 Trauma Center at Tertiary Hospital Qatar. Materials Methods: During 12-month period between November st 2007 October 31 2008, construction workers who fell from height were enrolled. A characterize...
BACKGROUND:We sought to evaluate the risk factors for developing ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and whether location of intubation posed a in trauma patients.METHODS: Data were retrospectively reviewed adult patients requiring > 48 hours, admitted between 2010 2013.Patients' demographics, clinical presentations outcomes compared according (prehospital [PHI] vs. room [TRI]) presence absence VAP.Multivariate regression analysis was performed identify predictors VAP. RESULTS:Of 471...
Degloving soft tissue injuries (DSTIs) are serious surgical conditions. We aimed to evaluate the pattern, management and outcome of DSTIs in a single institute.A retrospective analysis was performed for patients admitted with from 2011to 2013. Presentation, outcomes were analyzed according type DSTI.Of 178 DSTI patients, 91 % males mean age 30.5 ± 12.8. Three-quarter cases due traffic-related injuries. Eighty percent open identified. Primary debridement closure (62.9 %) frequent intervention...
