Abstract
The presence of a base excess level of less than â6 is associated with increased mortality in elderly patients with initial blood pressure between 110 and 140Â mmHg, diagnosed with thoracic trauma and who require admission to ICU. Routine measurement of this parameter in this population may show the clinical usefulness of assessing possible hidden hypoperfusion.
