Overview
Brief Summary
The study is designed to study the correlation between baseline and peak values of serum calcium and serum lactate with mortality in polytrauma patients. patients admitted to the ICU within 24 hours of trauma will be included in the study and will be followed up till discharge or transferred from ICU and daily measurements of serum calcium serum lactate and SOFA score will be done.
