Electrocardiographic Predictors for Early Risk Stratification: 30-Day Mortality in Older Adult Trauma Patients.

ABSTRACT: Objectives: This prospective observational study aimed to assess the prognostic value of electrocardiographic (ECG) findings obtained at emergency department (ED) admission in adult patients presenting with trauma-related fractures, with a focus on their association with 30-day all-cause mortality. Materials and Methods: A total of 391 patients aged ≥18 years with trauma-induced fractures were enrolled at a tertiary emergency center between February and May 2025. Baseline demographic and clinical data, including comorbidities, trauma mechanisms, and 12-lead ECG findings at admission, were recorded. Patients were monitored for 30-day mortality. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent predictors of mortality. Results: The mean age of the patients wa
