Abstract

This paper reports the results of a study to determine pattern vectors (Profiles) composed of physiological and biochemical measurements which reflect the severity of injury to traumatized individuals. Profiles, selected by clinicians at the University of Maryland Center for the Study of Trauma, were obtained from the Center data bank and subjected to pattern analyses using OLPARS, an on-line pattern analysis and recognition system, located at Rome Air Development Center, Rome, New York. Prognosis regions were delineated in the Eigenvector Plane and the Discriminant Plane. The time courses of individual patients were plotted in the Eigenvector Plane.
