Introduction: Despite the high incidence of blunt thoracic trauma and frequently performed conservative treatment, studies on very long-term consequences for these patients remain sparse in current literature. In this study, we identify prevalence of long-term morbidity such as chronic chest pain, shortness of breath, and analyze the effect on overall quality of life and health-related quality of life.
Methods: Questionnaires were send to patients admitted for blunt thoracic trauma at our institution and who were conservatively treated between 1997 and 2019.
