From: Skeletal muscle oxygenation in severe trauma patients during haemorrhagic shock resuscitation
Scatter dot plot (median with interquartile range) of StO2 measurements (baseline and StO2 desaturation slope) collected 6 hours after admission (H6) from the 54 trauma haemorrhagic patients. Patients were dichotomised according to their SOFA score at H72 (A) and to the in-hospital mortality (B). Improved SOFA score at H72 was defined as a delta SOFA score <0 (SOFA improvers, n = 34 patients), and unchanged or aggravated SOFA score at H72 by a delta SOFA score ≥0 (SOFA non-improvers, n = 20 patients). *P <0.05 vs. SOFA improvers or survivors. StO2, tissue haemoglobin oxygen saturation; SOFA, sequential organ failure assessment.
