Shock index: blunt clinical predictions
We appreciate the work of Mutschler and colleagues regarding shock index (SI) in trauma patients [1]; however, we would like to discuss a few points of interest. The SI obtained at the scene differed from the SI obtained in the emergency department (ED). Patients with SI category III had a SI at the scene of 0.7 to 1.5. This indicates that SI can vary with time and vary with changes in medical ...
متن کاملTrends in pediatric adjusted shock index predict morbidity and mortality in children with severe blunt injuries.
PURPOSE The utility of measuring the pediatric adjusted shock index (SIPA) at admission for predicting severity of blunt injury in pediatric patients has been previously reported. However, the utility of following SIPA after admission is not well described. METHODS The trauma registry from a level-one pediatric trauma center was queried from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2015. Patients were...
متن کاملLaminar and Turbulent Aero Heating Predictions over Blunt Body in Hypersonic Flow
In the present work, an engineering method is developed to predict laminar and turbulent heating-rate solutions for blunt reentry spacecraft at hypersonic conditions. The calculation of aerodynamic heating around blunt bodies requires alternative solution of inviscid flow field around the hypersonic bodies. In this paper, the procedure is of an inverse nature, that is, a shock wave is assumed a...
متن کاملImplicit LES for Shock/Blunt Body Interaction
The numerical simulation of the three-dimensional flow upwind of a vertical cylinder over a flat plate is achieved with a parallel LES code which is called DNSUTA Version III. The preliminary computational results with a coarse grid find that the flow structure is similar to experimental observations. The bow shock is very clear, and a separation shock is formed ( Λ -structure). Inside the sepa...
متن کاملHemorrhagic shock from breast blunt trauma
BACKGROUND Seat belt use has been associated with decreased life-threatening thoracic injuries. However, there has been an increase in soft-tissue injuries such as breast trauma. CASE REPORT We describe a case of a young healthy female who presented to a community hospital Emergency department without any trauma designation following a motor vehicle accident. The patient was found to have hem...
