MVA
Motor Vehicle Accident Case Report: A 29-year-old man was brought to our level one trauma hospital after a motor vehicle accident, during which he was ejected from the vehicle during the crash. The patient was taken for an emergent exploratory laparotomy shortly after admission and his abdomen was left open with a temporary covering for 2 days due to abdominal compartment syndrome. Treatment On hospital day 9, the patient’s neurological status began to improve and he no longer required pressors for haemodynamic stability. Over the next 3 weeks, he was frequently brought to the operating room for wound irrigation and debridements with revisions of his abdominal closure. During that time, his vital signs and renal function slowly improved and he was extubated on hospital day 25. His motor strength and lower extremity function improved tremendously with extensive physical therapy, and at his most recent follow-up appointment (14 months) he was able to walk independently and perform all basic activities of daily life.  ·  ·  · |
