Van’da yaşanan 2011 depremi sonrası gözlenen yanık olgularının analizi

CONCLUSION It was determined that the number of burn cases registered after the earthquake, the number of flame burns, the per- centage of burns and the rate of mortality were higher than the data before the earthquake.

📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯

Objective & Hypothesis:BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to determine the epidemio- logical features of cases that were registered for burns and treated at a hospital after the Van earthquake to compare burn cases from the previous year and to determine the fac- tors that influenced mortality.

📊

Key Findings & Data:METHODS Patients who were admitted to the Van Region Training and Research Hospital within the 3-month period after the earthquake were categorized as group 1; patients who were admitted within the same time interval in the previous year were categorized as group 2.

💡

Conclusion & Impact:CONCLUSION It was determined that the number of burn cases registered after the earthquake, the number of flame burns, the per- centage of burns and the rate of mortality were higher than the data before the earthquake.

Abstract

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to determine the epidemio- logical features of cases that were registered for burns and treated at a hospital after the Van earthquake to compare burn cases from the previous year and to determine the fac- tors that influenced mortality. METHODS Patients who were admitted to the Van Region Training and Research Hospital within the 3-month period after the earthquake were categorized as group 1; patients who were admitted within the same time interval in the previous year were categorized as group 2. RESULTS There were 121 patients in Group 1 and 89 patients in Group 2. It was determined that there were 36% more burn cases in Group 1. Flame burns were observed 4.8 times more often in Group 1 compared to Group 1 (p=0.002). Exitus was observed in 25.4% of cases in Group 1 and in 7% of cases in Group 2 (p=0.0069). CONCLUSION It was determined that the number of burn cases registered after the earthquake, the number of flame burns, the per- centage of burns and the rate of mortality were higher than the data before the earthquake.

Özet

AMAÇ Bu çalışma, Van’da yaşanan deprem sonrasında yanık ne- deniyle başvuran ve hastanede tedavi edilen olguların epi- demiyolojik özelliklerini belirlemek ve bir önceki yılın aynı aylarında başvuran yanık olgularıyla karşılaştırarak mortaliteye etkili olan faktörleri saptamak için planlandı. GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM Van Bölge Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi’ne depremden sonra üç aylık periyotta başvuran hastalar grup 1, bir yıl önce aynı tarih aralığında başvuran hastalar grup 2 olarak belirlendi. BULGULAR Grup 1’de 121 hasta, grup 2’de ise 89 hasta vardı. Grup 1’deki yanık olgularının %36 oranında arttığı saptandı. Alev yanıkları grup 1’de grup 2’ye göre 4,8 kat daha fazla gözlendi (p=0,002). Grup 1’de olguların %25,4’ünde, grup 2’de %7’sinde ölüm görüldü (p=0,0069). SONUÇ Deprem sonrasında başvuran yanık olguları sayısı, alev ya- nıklarının sayısı, yanık yüzdesi ve mortalite oranını, dep- rem öncesine göre yüksek olduğu saptandı.
