Özet
This study aims to evaluate the factors affecting the prognosis of cats presented with trauma complaints based on the type of trauma, clinical scoring (ATT and mGCS), laboratory measurements, and radiographic examination findings. The study materials consist of clinical (Animal Trauma Triage (ATT) Glasgow Coma Scale (mGCS), radiographic examinations, and laboratory analyses of a total of 50 cats of various breeds, ages, and weights, admitted to the Animal Hospital of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at Selcuk University with trauma complaints. According to clinical examination findings, the mean ATT was 3 in surviving cats and 8 in deceased cats, while the mGCS score was 17 in surviving cats and 14 in deceased cats. The results were statistically significant in deceased cats. Radiographic examinations revealed that thoracic and abdominal trauma were more common in deceased cats. Laboratory results showed statistically significant correlations for BUN, total protein, albumin, hematocrit, and red blood cell levels, with notable differences between surviving and deceased cats. It is suggested that the systematic application of these diagnostic tools will improve prognostic accuracy for traumatic injuries in cats and lead to better management and treatment outcomes. Additionally, future studies on traumatized cats should consider repeating analyses at specific intervals during the treatment process to better identify prognostic factors that influence mortality.
