Demographics, physiological and shock resuscitation parameters were collected. The primary outcome was MOF defined by a Denver Score > 3. Secondary outcomes: intensive care unit length of stay (ICU LOS), ventilation days and mortality. Results: Three hundred and forty-seven patients met inclusion criteria (age 48 ± 20; ISS 30 ± 11, 248 (71%) were males and 23 (6.6%) patients died. The 74 (21%) MOF patients (maximum Denver Score: 5.5 ± 1.8; Duration; 5.6 ± 5.8 days) had higher ISS (32 ± 11 versus 29 ± 11) and were older (54 ± 19 versus 46 ± 20 years) than non-MOF patients. Mean daily Denver scores adjusted for age, sex, MOF and ISS did not change over time. Crystalloid usage decreased over the 10-year period (p value < 0.01) and PRBC increased (p value < 0.01). Baseline cumulative incidence of MOF at 28 days was 9% and competing risk analyses showed that incidence of MOF increased over time (subdistribution hazard ratio 1.14, 95% CI 1.04 to 1.23, p value < 0.01). Mortality risk showed no temporal change. ICU LOS increased over time (subdistribution hazard ratio 0.95, 95% CI 0.92 to 0.98, p value < 0.01). Ventilator days increased over time (subdistribution hazard ratio 0.94, 95% CI 0.9 to 0.97, p value < 0.01). Conclusion: The epidemiology of MOF continues to evolve. Our prospective cohort suggests an ageing population with increasing incidence of MOF, particularly in males, with little changes in injury or shock parameters, who are being resuscitated with less crystalloids, stay longer on ICU without improvement in survival.]]> Thu 21 Mar 2024 11:56:18 AEDT ]]> Neonatal resuscitation training for midwives in Australia: a discussion of current practice https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42084 Thu 18 Aug 2022 11:14:08 AEST ]]> Preterm Infant Outcomes after Randomization to Initial Resuscitation with FiO<inf>2</inf>0.21 or 1.0 https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:41245 Sat 30 Jul 2022 12:33:27 AEST ]]> Postinjury multiple organ failure https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:7097 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:37:59 AEDT ]]> Patient populations at risk for intra-abdominal hypertension and abdominal compartment syndrome https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:15479 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:19:01 AEDT ]]> Acute transfusion practice during trauma resuscitation: who, when, where and why? https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:20178 110 g/l). Conclusion: The prospective evaluation of acutely transfused trauma patients showed a distinct pattern of transfusion triggers as the patient passes from ED to the OT and arrives to the ICU. The conventional transfusion trigger (haemoglobin level) is not appropriate in ET as early transfusion triggers are based on vital signs, blood gas results, injury patterns and anticipated major bleeding.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:51:40 AEDT ]]> Time to computed tomography scanning for major trauma patients: the Australian reality https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23619 3, intubated patients and those with subsequent fatal outcome. Conclusions: Although 93 min to completion of trauma CT scans is comparable with some international reports, it falls well behind centres who have demonstrated improved outcomes with CT scanning. Our results serve as a baseline to our and potentially other Australasian trauma centres to improve on this surrogate measure of trauma team efficacy.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:13:28 AEDT ]]> Implementation Methods of Virtual Reality Simulation and the Impact on Confidence and Stress When Learning Patient Resuscitation: An Integrative Review https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:48169 Sat 11 Mar 2023 12:22:50 AEDT ]]> The recovery position for maintenance of adequate ventilation and the prevention of cardiac arrest: A systematic review https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44827 Mon 24 Oct 2022 09:45:39 AEDT ]]> Australian and New Zealand anaesthetic allergy group/Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists Perioperative Anaphylaxis Management Guidelines https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34591 Mon 01 Apr 2019 11:11:26 AEDT ]]> Pelvic angioembolization: how urgently needed? https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:44476 Fri 14 Oct 2022 08:50:44 AEDT ]]> The epidemiology of overtransfusion of red cells in trauma resuscitation patients in the context of a mature massive transfusion protocol https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39971 Fri 01 Jul 2022 09:16:31 AEST ]]>
