Collected data on gender, age and age as the mechanism of injury, amount of blood recovered intraoperatively and during the first six days of hospitalization, which were analyzed according to outcome of treatment, ISS, AIS, and APACHE II score. Results showed that patients with lethal outcome received a larger amount of blood, there is a statistically significant correlation with ISS and AIS score for extremity injuries, and that larger amount of blood received patients injured in the traffic accidents, as pedestrians and motorcycle riders/bike, and there is no correlation with APACHE II score.
