Methods: The age, sex, road-use category, sites of injury, injury severity scale of 159 hospital death cases in 2436 cases with road traffic trauma were observed, and the relation between the causes of death and time elapsed after injury was also studied with likelihood ratio Chi-square test.展开更多

Many of them suffer from systemic edema. This extra-vascular fluid is caused by massive infusion of fluid and blood for the maintenance of blood pressure. During the recovery stage, the patients exhibit spontaneous diuresis followed by negative fluid balance. Urine volumes of some patients are more than 10000 ml/d. Do we need to maintain a balance between daily input and output of water at this situation? There are many references in the medical literature and textbooks about fluid resuscitation and the principles in maintaining the balance between input and output of water, but rarely about when and how to restrict it, that is, when and how to permit a negative balance. In this retrospective review, we examined the resuscitation records of 205 patients with systemic edema after trauma-hemorragic shock.展开更多
