Abstract
Data obtained from large databases in severe trauma patients generated the opportunity to develop different models of probability of survival. These models are supported by mathematics-based severity scales. Using these models in regional areas different from those where they were developed makes its validation mandatory. The TRISS model, which combines variables of RTS, ISS, age and type of injury allows obtaining the probability of survival.
Highlights
Data obtained from large databases in severe trauma patients generated the opportunity to develop different models of probability of survival
Validation of the probability of survival using the triss methodology in the Spanish Trauma intensive care units (ICUs) registry (RETRAUCI)
We compared the predicted mortality using the TRISS model with that observed in our sample of trauma patients admitted in 13 ICUs during 2013 and 2014, as a part of the pilot phase of the Spanish trauma ICU registry (RETRAUCI)
Summary
To validate the TRISS method as an audit system on a group of patients with severe trauma admitted to Spanish trauma intensive care units (ICUs)
