  1. Quick Surgical Airway Assessment for Trauma (qSAT) score was defined as the total of the three component scores, including male sex (female, 0 point; male, 1 point), presence of the facial injury (no, 0 point; yes, 1 point), and presence of the cervical area injury (no, 0 point; yes, 1 point), for a total score ranging from 0 to 3. AIS Abbreviated Injury Scale. RTS revised Trauma Score, ISS Injury Severity Score. The Hosmer-Lemeshow tests were used to assess the goodness of fit of the model (P > 0.05)
