The Role of Novel STAR Score in Intra-Abdominal Injury in Adult Blunt Abdominal Trauma Patients

Blunt abdominal Injury(BAI) can cause damage to Internal organs and internal bleeding. The liver, spleen, and Intestine are the most common organs affected by this type of Injury, and due to the Indirect nature of this injury, diagnosis Is difficult and often time-consuming. Although the outcome of patients with blunt abdominal injury has improved in the last two decades, in patients with multiple organ injuries, the In-hospital mortality rate was reported as 3-10% Early recognition of abdominal trauma is critical, as missed or delayed diagnoses are associated with increased mortality. Clinical assessment, including history, inspection, palpation, percussion, and auscultation, forms the cornerstone of evaluation, but may be limited in accuracy, especially in unconscious or intoxicated patients The development of point-of-care imaging techniques, particularly Focused Assessment with Sonography for Trauma (FAST), has greatly enhanced rapid detection of free intraperitoneal fluid in unstable patients. As a non-invasive, bedside procedure Laboratory investigations play an important adjunctive role in the assessment of abdominal trauma
