Analysis of clinical risk factors associated with the prognosis of severe multiple-trauma patients with acute lung injury
The Journal of Emergency Medicine, 09/03/09
Wu J et al. – Patients older than 65 years and with multiple blood transfusions in the early stage after multiple trauma were found to be independent risk factors associated with deterioration of ALI. The other factors studied, including pulmonary contusion, APACHE II score > 20, ISS > 16, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, and aspiration of gastric contents, may predict the unfavorable prognosis of ALI in the early stage of trauma, with their effects attenuating in the later stage.
