Abstract | Hemodynamically unstable patients with pelvic fractures require swift intervention due to the high mortality of their injuries. A delay in embolization of these patients significantly affects survival. We therefore, hypothesized that there would be a significant difference between time to embolization at our larger rural Level 1 Trauma Center. This study investigated the relationship between interventional radiology (IR) order time to IR procedure start time over 2 time periods at our large, rural Level 1 Trauma Center with those having sustained a traumatic pelvic fracture requiring IR, and having been identified as being in shock.
