Trauma is the principal reason of deaths in kids and young adults globally. Objective: To determine the causes and management of blunt liver trauma in a tertiary care hospital in Peshawar. Methods: The present investigation observed a total of 150 individuals through non-probability consecutive sampling to determine the mean hospital stay in patients presented with blunt liver trauma. Results: In this study, age distribution among 150 patients was analyzed as n= 10-20 Years 51 34.0%), 21-30 Years 35 (23.3%), 31-40 Years 16 (10.7%), 41-50 Years 23 (15.3%), 51-60 Years 25 (16.7%). Mean age was 41.56±5.357 years. Gender wise Distribution among 150 Patients was analyzed as Male were 94 (62.7%) and female were 56 (37.3%) Distribution of BMI among 150 patients were analyzed as n=Below 18.5 Underweight 76 (50.7%), 18.5–24.9 Normal weight 35 (23.3%), 25.0–29.9 pre-obesity 21 (14.0%), 30.0–34.9 Obesity class 18 (12.0%). Distribution Mechanism of Injury among 150 patients were analyzed as n= RTA was 57 (38.0%), fall from height was 52 (34.7%), Sport's injury was 18 (12.0%), physical assault was 23 (15.3%). Successful Conservative Management among 150 patients were analyzed as n= Yes was 106 (70.7%) and No was 44 (29.3%), Distribution of Mortality among 150 patients were analyzed as n= Yes was found 66 (44.0%) and No was found 84 (56.0%). Conclusions: The severity of liver damage and concomitant intra-abdominal injuries demonstrated a strong association with the chance of success with conservative therapy. The restricted hospital facilities and lack of agreement on traditional therapy had a detrimental influence on success.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
