Trauma Injury

Brief summary

Trauma significantly impacts both short- and long-term health outcomes, resulting in substantial mortality. Early identification and risk stratification in trauma patients are crucial for timely medical interventions. The Geriatric Trauma Outcome Score (GTOS), designed by incorporating age, the Injury Severity Score (ISS), and the need for packed red blood cell transfusion, has emerged as a valuable prognostic tool for elderly trauma patients, but its applicability to general trauma patients remains underexplored.
