Title: [Objective assessment of the severity of gunshot wounds]. Author: Shirokov DM, Somov SV, Polushin IuS. Journal: Anesteziol Reanimatol; 1998; (2):8-11. PubMed ID: 9612961. Abstract: By the present time, many mathematical models have been developed for assessing the status of patients with grave mechanical injuries. However, comparative analysis of the efficacy of predicting the outcomes of shock and traumatic disease with the use of some models in patients with war and other than war traumas showed that these methods are not fit for cases with gunshot wounds. We consider that a differentiated approach is needed in assessment of the status of wounded and injured patients.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
