[The methodology for the objective assessment of trauma severity (I. The assessment of the severity of mechanical injuries)].
The article proposes the methodology for assessment of the trauma severity according to two parameters: the severity of injuries and the severity of the wounded's and victims' state. The severity of injuries is a morphological characteristic of the trauma and it is a stable parameter, while the severity of the state is a functional characteristic of the trauma and represents a dynamic parameter. The assessment of each parameter is based upon calculation of quantitative indices by original scales. The authors propose a scale "MFS-I(MT)" for the assessment of the mechanical injury severity. Its specific features are polycriterial and are of the universal character. The injuries are characterized by weighed indices of the severity according to 3 criteria: the probability of a lethal outcome permanent invalidism and continuous loss of the ability to work. The scale can be used for the assessment of isolated, multiple and combined traumas. It is intended for using in military field conditions and in extreme situations.
