Abstract：Objective To explore the prewarning parameters of injury severity score in fat embolism syn-drome(FES) after bone trauma.Methods Quantitation study was employed to evaluate 47 cases of FES after bone trauma admitted in our hospital from Jan .1993 to Nov.2009 retrospectively with revised injury severity score ( RISS) and to explore the range of RISS .Results The RISS was over 11 in all cases .Of them,the RISS of 6 cases of sim-ple multiple fractures ranged from 11 to 18.Thirty-eight cases were from 18 to 25 and 3 cases were higher than 25 in patients with multiple fractures associated with craniocerebral or splanchnocoele injury .FES occurrence was positively correlated with the RISS(P<0.05).Conclusion An correlation exists between injury severity score of bone trauma and the development of FES .FES is likely to happen and precautions should be taken when the value of RISS is high-er than 11 in patients with simple multiple fractures ,or RISS value≥18 in patients with multiple fractures accompa-nied by traumatic brain injury or abdominal cavity organ damage .
