ABSTRACT
To assess the mortality incidence among trauma victims, one year prospective study comprising all patients admitted in Rajendra Hospital, Patiala, Punjab with physical trauma was undertaken. Road traffic accidents were the commonest cause of trauma-death followed closely by thermal injury. Mortality was highest among victims of multiple injuries. The mortality rate increased in direct proportion to increase in transportation time and Injury Severity Score (ISS). We advocate some simple preventive and regulatory steps to lower the mortality incidence in trauma cases.
