Post-Injury Blood Alcohol Inversely Tied to Mortality Substantial drop in case fatality rates for patients with elevated blood alcohol concentration MONDAY, Dec. 3 (HealthDay News) -- For patients with traumatic injuries, there is an inverse dose-response association between blood alcohol concentration and in-hospital mortality, according to a study published in the December issue of Alcohol.

In an effort to examine the dose-response association of in-hospital mortality and blood alcohol concentration, Lee S. Friedman, M.S.P.H., from the University of Illinois in Chicago conducted a retrospective analysis of all traumatic injuries occurring between 1995 and 2009 reported by level 1 and 2 trauma units in the State of Illinois. A total of 190,612 patients with blood alcohol toxicological examination levels ranging from 0 to 500 mg/dL were included.
