In-hospital mortality rate was 4.2%, primarily linked to severe trauma and low Glasgow Coma Scale scores during motorcycle crashes.
Logistic regression identified key predictors of mortality, highlighting the critical importance of initial clinical outcomes and trauma severity.
Trauma severity displayed moderate accuracy in predicting mortality with an area under the curve of 0.723, underlining its relevance in emergency response.
Findings suggest that enhancing emergency care systems and implementing targeted trauma management protocols is crucial in conflict zones.
