Background/Objectives: The Geriatric Trauma Outcome Score (GTOS) is used to predict in-hospital mortality in geriatric patients with trauma. However, its applicability elderly multiple traumas and severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) remains poorly understood. This study aimed evaluate the predictive accuracy of GTOS TBI assess performance mild TBI. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 1283 trauma (aged ≥ 65 years) treated at a regional center from 2019 2023. Patients were stratified into...
Background/Objectives: Trauma remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, significantly affecting younger aging populations. The regional trauma center establishment in South Korea 2014 marked pivotal advancement the national care system. This study reviews data from Incheon Regional Center, analyzing patient demographics, injury mechanisms, outcome trends. Methods: retrospective analysis included 32,025 patients with treated at Center to 2023. Data Korean Database Injury...
Background: Bleeding pelvic fractures have high mortality rates, primarily due to severe hemorrhage. Treatment options include mechanical stabilization based on preperitoneal packing (PPP), resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta, and angioembolization (AE). The bilateral approach, which uses three pads each side, is conventional PPP method. We aimed compare approach with a modified involving selectively only heavily bleeding areas, in terms clinical outcomes risks....
Tracheostomy is performed in patients with trauma who need prolonged ventilation for respiratory failure or airway management. Although it has benefits, such as reduced sedation and easier care, also risks. This study explored the unclear timing, technique, patient selection criteria tracheostomy trauma.
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes after totally implantable access port (TIAP) implantation performed by general surgery residents in patients with colorectal cancer.Methods: A total of 291 consecutive who underwent TIAP implantations were evaluated. The divided into threegroups: second-, third-, and fourth-grade residents.Results: mean follow-up was 22.1 months (range, 1–87 months). times operation, puncture, cannulation decreased as resident grade increased...
Traumatic uterine rupture is uncommon but can be fatal and life-threatening for both the mother infant. In addition to complications caused by trauma itself, such as pelvic fracture, gestational placental abruption, abortion, premature labor, of membranes, maternal death, stillbirth occur. particular, fetuses have been reported a high mortality rate in cases traumatic rupture. A 35-year-old pregnant female patient fell from fourth floor was admitted our center. We observed large...
Xiphoid elongation is a rare phenomenon where the xiphoid process elongates after stimuli such as surgery, physical therapy, or trauma. We report on 47-year-old male involved in traffic accident who went into cardiac arrest. He received ongoing cardiopulmonary resuscitation for nine minutes before recovery of rhythm, and transfer from local hospital to trauma center. management hypotensive shock which was temporarily corrected using Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion Aorta,...
Following a motor-vehicle accident, 57-year-old man was diagnosed with grade 4 liver injury (American Association for the Surgery of Trauma organ scale) multiple contrast extravasations. He initially underwent nonoperative management, which included transcatheter arterial embolization. However, he experienced hemorrhage after first embo-lization procedure, and so procedure repeated. Thereafter, failure based on findings from computed tomography function tests. On day 28 hospitalization,...
Purpose: Patients with penetrating injuries are at a high risk of mortality, and many them require emergency surgery. Proper triage transfer the patient to department (ED), where immediate definitive treatment is available, key improving survival. This study aimed evaluate epidemiology outcomes patients torso in Incheon Metropolitan City. Methods: Data from trauma between 2014 2018 (5 years) were extracted National Emergency Department Information System. In this study, (chest abdomen)...
