ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial, called TRISS as a Predictor of Trauma Patient Outcomes, is studying how well the Trauma and Injury Severity Score (TRISS) can predict the chances of survival and other important outcomes for patients who have experienced trauma. The study is taking place at Kadhimiya Educational Hospital in Iraq and aims to see if TRISS can help doctors understand how likely it is that a trauma patient will need intensive care, surgery, or have a longer hospital stay.

To participate in this study, patients must be at least 18 years old and have been admitted to the emergency department due to trauma. Importantly, the study will assess patients using the TRISS score within the first hour of their arrival to get timely information. Throughout their hospital stay, the medical team will monitor their recovery, including whether they survive, need intensive care, or require surgery. This trial is currently looking for participants and aims to provide valuable insights that could help improve care for trauma patients.
