Thorax Trauma Severity Score in Chest Trauma: A Study in Iraq

Sponsor: Al-Nahrain University

Summary

This prospective observational study aims to evaluate the predictive utility of the Thorax Trauma Severity Score (TTSS) in determining morbidity and mortality in patients presenting with chest trauma at a tertiary hospital in Iraq. The primary objectives of the study are: To assess the accuracy of TTSS in predicting mortality and critical outcomes such as ICU admission and the need for advanced interventions. To evaluate the utility of TTSS in stratifying patients based on injury severity in a resource-constrained setting. To identify demographic and clinical factors influencing the predictive performance of TTSS. Participants will: Be assessed using the TTSS upon arrival at the emergency department to establish risk stratification. Provide demographic and clinical data, including age, gender, mechanism of injury, comorbidities, and length of hospital stay, for analyzing associations with clinical outcomes.
