[Over-Under Triage in Trauma Team Activation: A retrospective analysis in Asst Monza].

Introduction: Meeting the literature standards during the triage process of trauma victims, allows to make optimal use of the resources available in Trauma Centers and defines their level of quality and efficiency. Otherwise, it may occur over or under-triage. Up to now, in the reality under study and in the national literature, there wasn't any available data about efficiency and effectiveness in the triage of traumatic patients, therefore the primary objective of this study is to evaluate the over and under-triage rate in activating Trauma Team (TT) in the ASST of Monza San Gerardo Hospital.

Factors associated with delayed cardiac tamponade after cardiac surgery.

Context: Cardiac tamponade (CT) following cardiac surgery is a potentially fatal complication and the cause of surgical reintervention in 0.1%-6% of cases. There are two types of CT: acute, occurring within the first 48 h postoperatively, and subacute or delayed, which occurs more than 48 h postoperatively.
