PROSPECTIVE STUDY TO CORRELATE CECT FINDINGS AND ENZYMATIC MARKERS IN BLUNT TRAUMA ABDOMEN PATIENTS

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Blunt trauma in the abdomen is a common surgical emergency that can occur as a standalone problem or as part of a larger polytrauma. The purpose of this study was to see how useful hepatic transaminases, serum amylase, and lipase are in predicting the existence of liver and pancreatic injury, as well as how they relate to computed tomographic results. To investigate theAIMS AND OBJECTIVES: relationship between blood tests and CECT ndings in patients with blunt trauma to the abdomen. To assess the efcacy of amylase and lipase levels in the diagnosis and management of BTA patients and to make an early diagnosis so that patients can be treated appropriately. to see if AST and ALT values are useful in the diagnosis and treatment of BTA patients Our research took place in the Department of Surgery atMETHODS: M.L.N. and the accompanying Swaroop Rani Nehru Hospital over the course of a year. Prayagraj. During the study period, all cases with a clinical diagnosis of blunt injury to the abdomen who came to the department of General Surgery, SRN Hospital, Prayagraj, were consecutively enrolled into the study after a written informed consent. Following initial resuscitation, all individuals underwent a thorough assessment for injuries, which was followed by subsequent examination. In CT-detected patients with liver and pancreatic damage, there were no signicant variationsRESULT: in enzyme serum levels. CT scans have been proven to be more effective at detecting liver and pancreatic damage. The diagnosis of corresponding organ damage is more likely with the quantication of pancreatic and liver enzymes in BAT patients' serum than with CT. CONCLUSION: Elevated level of liver (SGOT, SGPT) and pancreatic enzymes (S. amylase) with due consideration of critical level of these enzymes for abdominal trauma may be preferred over radiological methods to avoid unnecessary delay and exposure to radiation.
