Abstract

BACKGROUND: This study compared the TRIAGE of IRAN-IRAQ WAR-injured troops within the first two years of the war with that after the first two years.METHODS: This was a retrospective study, which compared the TRIAGE of the admissions for ABDOMINAL INJURIES during the first two years of the IRAN-IRAQ WAR with that in the next 6 years. Out of nearly 50,000 cases, 1,176 ones were randomly selected and their TRIAGE information was recorded and analyzed.RESULTS: About 12.5% of patients were operated on within less than 8 hours during the first two years. From 1982 towards the end of the conflict (1988), the patients were treated within progressively shorter periods of sustaining injury; 68.8% were operated on within less than 4 hours of injury. The mean delay between injury and treatment in the first two years of war was 12 hours while it was 5 hours between 1982 and 1988. The difference was significant (P<0.05) but the mortality rate was not significantly different.CONCLUSIONS: Patient TRIAGE was conducted differently at various stages of conflict. Better patient TRIAGE after 1982, may have been due to improved care and more specialized TRIAGE of injured troops.
