P Patients basic data; A Prehospital phase; B1 early trauma room phase; B2 late trauma room phase; GCS Glasgow outcome scale; CCCM closed chest cardiac massage; PRBC packed red blood cells; AIS abbreviated injury scale; Regression coefficient and ORs for the variable AISmax are not applicable due to the fact that this is a dummy variable. n = 2,354 patients, logistic regression (stepwise forward) with target variable mortality; variables sorted according to ATLS® A, B, C, D, E-criteria.
