We assessed the restrictive IOIVF use in PD on the rate of post-operative AKI, delayed gastric emptying and ileus, and pancreatic fistulas (POPF). METHODS Patients who underwent PD between 2012 and 2017 were reviewed. Univariate and multivariate analyses looked for association between pre- and intra-operative factors on AKI, ileus and POPF. RESULTS Of 395 included patients, 97, 172, and 126 patients received less than 1000 mL (ultra-restrictive), 1000 mL to less than 2000 mL (restrictive), and 2000 mL and greater (nonrestrictive) normalized total IOIVF respectively. Of these 23 (24.2%), 34(20.4%), and 21(17.4%) developed AKI respectively, most of them mild. There was no difference in odds of developing AKI, ileus, or pancreatic fistula among fluid groups. While there was no difference in Clavien-Dindo III-IV complications, the incidence of Clavien-Dindo type I-II complications was lower in the restricted fluid groups. DISCUSSION Restricted fluids did not lead to higher AKI rates but were associated with fewer low-grade complications. Injury severity scores (ISS) and shock index (SI) are popular trauma scoring systems. We assessed ISS and SI in combat trauma to determine the optimal cut-off values for mortality and trauma outcomes. Retrospective analysis of the Department of Defense Trauma Registry, 2008-2016, was performed. Areas under receiver operating characteristic curves (AUROCs) were calculated for ISS and SI on mortality, massive volume transfusion (MVT), and emergent surgical procedure (ESP). Optimal cut-off values were defined using the Youden index (YI). 22,218 patients (97.1% male), median ages 25-29 years, ISS 9.4 ± 0.07, with 58.1% penetrating injury were studied. Overall mortality was 3.4%. AUROCs for ISS on mortality, MVT, and ESP were 0.882, 0.898, and 0
