Adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is common complication and cause of death in some patients with polytrauma. Twenty patients with polytrauma were in test group and have had revised trauma score (RTS) nine or less. The aim of this study is to establish an incidence of ARDS, mortality rate and significance of Lung injury score (LIS) in assessment of damage of the lung function. In test group, 20% (4 patients) tested have developed ARDS with mortality rate of 25% (one patient dead). LIS is important for quantification and qualification of damage of the lung function. In patients who survived, value of LIS has been decreasing within three days. In patient who deceased, LIS has been continuously more than 2.5 within three days. LIS does not have significance as mortality predictor in cases of non-pulmonary complications such as renal, hepatic and cardiac dysfunction.
