Epidemiology of postinjury multiple organ failure: a prospective multicenter observational study
Although a rare syndrome in the general population, MOF occurred in 23% of the most severely injured polytrauma patients. When compared to previous risk-matched cohorts, MOF become more common, but not more lethal, despite a decade older cohort. The heart has superseded the lungs as the most common organ to fail. Cardiac and respiratory failures occurred earlier and were associated with lower mortality than renal and hepatic failures.
