Observational study to know what is the predictive accuracy of platelet-neutrophil ratio (PNR) and platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) done in patients presenting to ED( emergency department)within 6 hours of trauma; in detecting early trauma induced coagulopathy during hospital admission
Trauma has a significant impact on the wellbeing and healthcare for the populations. Millions of patients seek medical help as a result of trauma, with a substantial proportion of patients suffering from life-changing or life-limiting injuries. The leading cause of traumatic death worldwide is road traffic collision, followed by suicide and homicide.(4) The role of platelets in the hemostasis and coagulation is crucial. Platelet interaction with lymphocytes, neutrophils, and monocytes modifies both the innate and adaptive immune responses.Platelets stick to the damaged endothelium and recruit leukocytes to the sites of injury. Lymphocytes are the major cellular components of the humoral and cell-mediated immune system which include T, B, and natural killer cells. Platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), platelet- neutrophil ratio (PNR) could reflect the balance between the body response to inflammation and immunity mediators Previously, few studies have tested the usefulness of PLR, PNR for predicting the outcomes in stroke , cardiovascular diseases. abdominal trauma, ARDS (Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome) \& sepsis. I would like to do a study, where the results could be utilized in a resource limited hospital , for early referral and the prognostic value of these biomarkers in predicting ETIC in trauma. The present study hypothesize that the on-admission PLR , PNR values would help early risk stratification and timely management of trauma patients which subsequently improve the outcomes
