Predictive Role of Glucose/Potassium Ratio on Mortality in Major Burns.

Turkey (Türkiye)200 participantsStarted 2022-05-01

Plain-language summary

The aim of this observational study is to investigate the role of the glucose-potassium ratio in predicting mortality in patients with major burn trauma. The main question it aims to answer is: Can the glucose-potassium ratio predict mortality in major burn patients? The glucose-to-potassium ratios of major burn patients at the time of initial hospitalization will be determined, and their relationship with mortality will be analyzed.
