More Details: Abstract Objective Previous reports have indicated the occurrence of acute gastrointestinal injury (AGI) in critically ill individuals. Yet, there is limited information regarding the frequency and potential causes of AGI in individuals with polytrauma. The complicated diagnostic tools often mistaken and mislead the evaluation of AGI. The objective of this research is to create a nomogram that can predict the likelihood of AGI in individuals with polytrauma. Results Among 836 polytrauma patients, AGI occurred in 61.2%, significantly higher than the 9.5% in monotrauma patients (P 16, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) 16, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) > 5, presence of shock, lactate level > 3.2, and Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time (APTT) > 40 in the individualized prediction nomogram. The nomogram showed good discrimination (C-index = 0.719) and satisfactory calibration.
