Impact of the Interaction Between Injury Mechanism and Intent on ICISS-Based Severity and Emergency Department Disposition: A Retrospective Study
Injury mechanism and intent are independently associated with emergency department disposition and injury severity, with additional risk amplification observed for specific combinations. These findings suggest that mechanism-intent combinations may serve as clinically useful risk indicators in emergency department triage and decision-making, supporting improved risk stratification and system-level coordination.
