Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
to assess the efficacy of the novel modified rib fracture score in selection of an analgesia planTimepoint: patient will be assessed by using PIC score which will look at P-Pain , I-Incentive spirometry,C- Cough which will be monitored daily till the patient discharged , and will be later looking at the trend of the score and assessment will be made

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Patient outcomes: length of hospital stay, in-hospital pneumonia rates, ICU transfer rate and discharge Influence of pulmonary contusions, chronic lung disease on the outcomes Confounders: Influence of ISS & AIS as independent predictors on outcomes.Timepoint: ISS,AIS will be calculated at the time of admission ,presence of lung contusions will be seen throug CT findings ,at the time of discharge the length of hospital stay will be noted
