Study summary

The study aims to identify several factors that can accurately predict the incident of intestinal infraction in patients with mesenteric vascular occlusion or ischemia.

Read the detailed description

The study aims to identify several clinical, laboratory, and radiologic factors that can accurately predict the occurrence of intestinal infraction in patients with mesenteric vascular occlusion or ischemia in order to prevent unnecessary surgical intervention in patients with just intestinal ischemia and to hasten intervention in patients with actual intestinal gangrene.
