METHODS: A total of 450 trauma patients evaluated by AIS 2005 and AIS 1998 from July 2005 to January 2007 were analyzed retrospectively. RESULTS: The mortality and morbidity of complications in trauma patients were ascending with the increase of injuries severity score (ISS). The ascending tendency in mortality was more notable in injuries severity score (ISS) > 20 in AIS 2005. The mortality in trauma patients in AIS 2005 was significantly lower than those in AIS 1998 in ISS > 15, Language: zhRead More
