Brief Summary

This study aimed to measure the effects of SIH and DH on the mortality outcomes of the adult patients with moderate to severe thoracoabdominal injury

Detailed Description

Because the pathophysiologic response of the patients with a thoracoabdominal injury is different from those who had a traumatic brain injury, this study aimed to measure the effects of hyperglycemia induced by stress or by diabetes on the outcomes of patients with thoracoabdominal injuries in comparison with those who had non-diabetic normoglycemia (NDN). The primary study hypothesis stated that, following thoracoabdominal injuries, the patients with SIH had a worse outcome than patients with DH. The primary outcome was mortality rate of these patients.
