Factors predictive of death at South Australian major trauma services were investigated among 8,654 patients who had experienced severe trauma from 1997 to 2000.
Univariate and multivariate analyses of age, sex, injury severity, presence of comorbid conditions, and calendar year of presentation were performed.
Multiple logistic regression indicated that factors predictive of death were older age; higher injury severity as indicated by the New Injury Severity Score and the Revised Trauma Score; and accompanying chronic liver disease, ischemic heart disease, and chronic renal failure. A decrease in risk of death by calendar year was statistically significant (p = 0.001). Using 1997 as the reference, the relative odds of death were 0.86 (95% confidence limits) (0.53, 1.39) for 1998, 0.60 (0.36, 0.99) for 1999, and 0.45 (0.27, 0.76) for 2000.
Results show a decrease in risk of death of patients attending South Australian major trauma services, from injuries of equivalent severity, during the first 4 years of operation of the State Trauma System.
在1997年至2000年间经历严重创伤的8654例患者中,对南澳大利亚主要创伤服务机构中预测死亡的因素进行了调查。
对年龄、性别、损伤严重程度、合并症的存在情况以及就诊年份进行单因素和多因素分析。
多因素逻辑回归表明,预测死亡的因素包括年龄较大;新损伤严重程度评分和修订创伤评分所显示的较高损伤严重程度;以及伴有慢性肝病、缺血性心脏病和慢性肾衰竭。按年份计算,死亡风险的降低具有统计学意义(p = 0.001)。以1997年为参照,1998年死亡的相对比值为0.86(95%置信区间)(0.53,1.39),1999年为0.60(0.36,0.99),2000年为0.45(0.27,0.76)。
结果显示,在该州创伤系统运行的前4年中,南澳大利亚主要创伤服务机构中同等严重程度损伤患者的死亡风险有所降低。
