Objective: The objective of this study was to identify factors associated with the intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay (LOS) of patients with an acute traumatic spinal cord injury above T6.
Methods: We performed a retrospective, observational study of patients admitted to an ICU between 1998 and 2017 (n = 241). The LOS was calculated using a cumulative incidence function, with events of death being considered a competing event.
Study Design: This is a retrospective, observational study.
Objectives: To evaluate organ dysfunction in patients with an acute traumatic spinal cord injury (ATSCI) above T6 using the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score to determine its association with mortality.
Setting: The study was performed at the intensive care unit (ICU) of a tertiary hospital in the northwest of Spain.
Objective: To characterize patients with acute traumatic spinal cord injury (ATSCI) above T6 who were admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) for ≥30 days and their 1-year mortality compared with patients admitted for <30 days.
Methods: A retrospective observational study was performed on 211 patients with an acute traumatic spinal cord injury above T6 who were admitted to an ICU between 1998 and 2017. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the relationship between an ICU stay ≥30 days and mortality after ICU discharge.
Objective: To analyze the changes in demographic and lesion characteristics of persons with acute traumatic spinal cord injury (ATSCI) above T6 over a period of 20 years, and to evaluate their impact on ICU resources use, length of stay and mortality.
Design: Retrospective observational study.
Setting: Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the University Hospital Complex of A Coruña, Spain.
