Abstract
The results of our study demonstrated that biochemical parameters may contribute to the diagnosis and follow-up of intraabdominal injuries in multitrauma patients. In particular, ALT, AST, CK and myoglobin were found to have higher ORs than low hemoglobin. After these parameters are tested in larger scale studies in conjunction with the gold standard multislice abdominal CT, they may be used for establishing scores to evaluate the severity of abdominal injuries.
