Covid-19 caused many service changes including limitations on operations due to potential increased mortality risk to patients. We report our findings from Trauma &amp; Orthopaedic (T&amp;O) surgical mortality through this period and the effectiveness of using a scoring system (The Manchester Equation) to predict likelihood of mortality. Method We reviewed all T&amp;O admissions that underwent surgical intervention during the height of the pandemic. We recorded numerous factors for each patient including mortality and Covid status. From this we created a scoring system which is the product of Covid status, Anaesthetic type, Medical co-morbidities and other medical factors and ASA Score. We then analysed the findings to determine whether the score could be predictive of mortality rate. Results Of 123 patients undergoing surgery 6 deaths were observed (mean score of 51.3) compared to 117 patients surviving (mean score 31.9), p = 0.001. A score of less than 32 carried a 0% chance of death whereas a score of 32 or more resulted in a 14.6% mortality rate (p = 0.01). Conclusion The Manchester Equation can be used to help predict the mortality rate of T&amp;O surgery in the presence of Covid-19 and may be useful for clinical decision making and consent purposes.
