Revize edilmiş travma skoru ve serum C-reaktif protein arasındaki ilişki

Travma ve enfeksiyon sistemik inflamatuar yanıta yol açarak sitokinler ve akut faz reaktanlarının artışına neden olur. Bu çalışmada, karaciğerde üretilen bir akut faz reaktanı olan C-Reaktif Protein (CRP) ve travma ciddiyeti arasında ilişki araştırmayı amaçladık. Yoğun Bakım Ünitesinde bir yıllık bir süre boyunca (Temmuz 2000- Haziran 2001) izole kafa travması veya kafa travmasıyla beraber politravma ile yatan 146 olgu retrospektif olarak incelendi. Travmayı takiben ilk 24 saatteki Injury Severity Score (ISS), Glasgow Koma Skoru (GKS), Revize edilmiş Travma Skoru (RTS) ve serum CRP değerleri belirlendi. 72 saat sonra klinik belirtiler ve mikrobiyolojik kültür sonuçlarına göre enfeksiyon görülen ve görülmeyen olgular araştırıldı. Enfeksiyon görülmeyen 43 olgudaki serum CRP değerleri ve travma skorları arasında bir ilişki olup olmadığı araştırıldı. Travmayla gelen 146 olguda, travmayı takiben ilk 24 saatte ISS 23.2±9.8, GKS 7.9±3.2, RTS 4.5885±2.1516 ve serum CRP 9.77±4.31 mg/dL olarak tespit edildi. 72 saat sonra enfeksiyon görülen 103 olgunun serum CRP değerleri yükseldi (9.62±4.66'dan 16.83+3.92 mg/dL'ye, P

The relation between the revised trauma score and serum C-reactive protein

Systemic inflammatory response as a result of trauma and infection causes an increase in acute phase reactants. In this study, we aimed to study the relation between trauma and an acute phase reactant; C-reactive Protein (CRP). 146 ICU patients with an isolated craniocerebral trauma or polytrauma with craniocerebral trauma were included in this retrospective study between July 2000 and June 2001. The Injury Severity Score (ISS), Glas-gow Coma Score (GCS), the Revised Trauma Score (RTS) and serum CRP levels were recorded in 24 hours after the trauma. Patients were separated into two groups as infected and non-infected according to their clinical signs and microbiological culture results after 72 hours. A correlation between serum CRP and the RTS in non-infected 43 patients was also investigated. In the evaluation of 146 patients; the ISS, GCS, the RTS and serum CRP were 23.2±9.8, 7.9±3.2, 4.5885±2.1516 and 9.77±4,31 mg/dL respectively. After 72 hours, serum CRP levels of 103 infected patients were elevated from 9.62±4.66 to 16.83±3.92 mg/dL, (p
