30-Day mortality risk predictors for emergency laparotomy: a comparative study

Key Result

The NELA score was the most effective predictor of 30-day mortality in patients undergoing emergency laparotomy.

Key Points

• The research aims to identify effective predictors of 30-day mortality in patients undergoing emergency laparotomy.
• Comparative analysis of predictive scores
• Assessment of different risk factors
• Evaluation of mortality outcomes
• NELA score demonstrated superior performance in predicting mortality
• Other scoring systems were less effective
• Findings indicate the need for improved risk assessment in emergency settings
