Earthquake-related injuries: Evaluation with multidetector computed tomography and digital radiography of 1491 patients
2012, Journal of Critical CareCitation Excerpt :By contrast, no significant difference in mortality was found between single vs multiple anatomical areas of injury (P = .115), however, the mortality increased significantly when the number of involved anatomical sites increased from 1 to 4 areas (P = .021). As we have all witnessed, the casualty burden from a massive earthquake is high [9]. The recent 2010 Haiti earthquake caused mortality in upward of 200 000 at the time of this study, compared with the 2008 Sichuan earthquake's estimated 69 227 deaths.
