ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effective methods for treatment of severe chest trauma with multiple organ injury. Methods The injury conditions and the early treatment measures in 87 cases of severe chest trauma with multiple organ injury (especially within 48 h after injury) were analyzed retrospectively. Results Of the 78 patients, 61 patients survived, and 26 died (including 2 patients who abandoned treatment). The total mortality was 29 89%. Primary operation was performed on 37 patients with multiple organ injury, but 7 died (18 92%). Conclusion Diagnosis while rescuing, effective countershock treatment, early operation, protection of visceral functions, and preventive mechanical ventilation may be the important measures to guarantee the success of treatment of severe chest trauma with multiple organ injury.
