Thorax vs. Trauma Injury Severity Scores as Outcome Predictors in Chest Trauma

The goal of this observational study is to compare the predictive utility of the Thorax Trauma Severity Score (TTSS) and the Trauma and Injury Severity Score (TRISS) in determining outcomes among patients presenting with chest trauma to the emergency room. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the TTSS provide a more accurate prediction of patient outcomes (e.g., mortality, ICU admission) than the TRISS? Are there specific patient subgroups where one score is more effective than the other? Participants will: Have their chest trauma severity assessed using both TTSS and TRISS during their emergency room admission. Have their clinical outcomes (e.g., mortality, ICU admission, length of hospital stay) monitored throughout their hospital stay.
