A preliminary computational analysis of a number of factors affecting the probability of survival in trauma injuries\ud was carried out. The study examined the manner the types and\ud extent of body injuries, specific body regions affected by the injuries, pre-exiting medical conditions, physiological parameters (e.g. heart rate, blood pressure and respiration rate), age, gender and Glasgow Comma Score contribute to the probability of survival. A more in depth analysis of these factors are currently ongoing to develop a model for the probability of survival.
