Michael D Pasquale MD, FACS, FCCM

BACKGROUND: Achieving a higher hemoglobin (Hb) level might allow the anemic, critically ill, trauma patient to have an improved outcome during rehabilitation therapy. METHODS: Patients with major blunt trauma orthopedic injuries were administered epoetin alfa or placebo weekly both in hospital and for up to 12 weeks after discharge or until the Hb level was >12.0 g/dL, whichever occurred first. The 36-question Short Form Health Assessment questionnaire (SF-36) was used to evaluate physical function (PF) outcomes at baseline, at hospital discharge, and at several time points posthospital discharge. RESULTS: One hundred ninety-two patients were enrolled (epoetin alfa [n = 97], …

Hips Can Lie: Impact Of Excluding Isolated Hip Fractures On External Benchmarking Of Trauma Center Performance, David Gomez, Barbara Haas, Mark Hemmila, Michael Pasquale, Sandra Goble, Melanie Neal, N Mann, Wayne Meredith, Henry Cryer, Shahid Shafi, Avery Nathens

Michael D Pasquale MD, FACS, FCCM

BACKGROUND: Trauma centers (TCs) vary in the inclusion of patients with isolated hip fractures (IHFs) in their registries. This inconsistent case ascertainment may have significant implications on the assessment of TC performance and external benchmarking efforts. METHODS: Data were derived from the National Trauma Data Bank (2007-8.1). We included patients (aged 16 years or older) with Injury Severity Score value ≥ 9 who were admitted to Level I and II TCs. To ensure data quality, we limited the study to TC that routinely reported comorbidities and Abbreviated Injury Scale codes. IHF were defined as patients, aged 65 years or older, …
