Observational StudyPrognostic value of scoring tools in severe trauma patients admitted to the emergency department.
Severe Trauma is a misleading cause of death in young people. Early assessment of prognosis is the cornerstone in the management of such patients. Several prognostic scores have been proposed during the last decade. ⋯ Severe trauma is a dynamic process with a heavy morbidity and mortality.
