Evaluating predictors of mortality in octogenarians undergoing urgent or emergent trauma laparotomy

This national analysis emphasizes the need to identify and manage pre-existing conditions like cirrhosis and not determine futility based on pre-trauma functional status alone. Concurrent thoracotomy for hemorrhage control increases risk of death over 16-fold.
