Predictors of Outcomes in 1,441 Vascular Injuries: 10-Year Experience in a Large Urban Trauma Center

Key Points

• Mortality rates increase with unstable vascular injuries involving critical vessels, suggesting serious implications for patient management.
• Over ten years, analysis of 1,441 cases identified predictive risk factors, including the type of vessel involved.
• Observational analysis focuses on victims with vascular injuries treated at a large urban trauma center, shedding light on intervention needs.
• Identifying these risk factors may enable more effective and targeted treatment strategies, potentially reducing mortality.
