25-Year Experience With Polytraumatized Patients in a Level 1 Trauma Center.: Polytrauma Between 1995 and 2019: What Has Changed

In this study patients who were admitted to our hospital with critical injuries were enrolled retrospectively from January 1992 to December 2019. Patients with an ISS>16 points, an AIS >3 in one body region and at least 2 different body regions affected were included. Possible prognostic factors were evaluated.
