MP79-18 INJURY SEVERITY SCORE ASSOCIATED WITH CONCURRENT BLADDER INJURY IN PATIENTS WITH BLUNT URETHRAL INJURY
2017
Background
Delayed diagnosis of concurrent bladder damage in a patient with blunt urethral trauma can lead to a high rate of morbidity. In patients with a high index of suspicion, genitourinary workup is recommended. In complicated patients with multi-trauma, this workup has a risk of being delayed. A proven prognostic indicator to evaluate the likelihood of bladder injury in this population has not been established. The aim of this study was to determine if there was a clinical association between the Injury Severity Score (ISS) and bladder injury involvement among these patients.
