Abstract

Objective: We aimed to investigate and compare the features of child and adult injuries due to bicycle accidents admitted to our emergency department. Material and Methods: The study was carried out retrospectively by searching the files of patients admitted to the emergency department due to bicycle accidents in the emergency department and archive records between the dates of January 2005-December 2008. The patients were divided into two groups as adults and children. Age and sex of the patients, season or month of injuries, place and mechanism of injury, site of the injury, diagnosis and treatment modalities, discharge and hospitalization rates were evaluated. Student t test was used for two group comparison. Results: A total of 150 patients were included in the study. 79% of the patients were in the child age group, 21% were adults. It was determined that the number of accidents increased especially in the summer months. 71.4% of accidents concerning children and all adult accidents occurred in the streets. Falling off the bicycle was the most common cause of injury in children (91%) and adults (90%). The head and neck region was the most common body site subjected to injury in both children (32%) and adults (40%). There was a significant difference between the two groups with respect to injury severity. Conclusion: Most of the injuries due to bicycle accidents in children happen, in the streets, in summer months and during school vacations. Although not statistically significant, it was seen that adult injuries were more serious. (JAEM 2012; 11: 35-40)

Özet

Amaç: Çalışmamızda bisiklet kazalarına bağlı yaralanmalarla acil servisimize başvuran çocuk ve erişkin hastaların yaralanma özelliklerinin araştırılması ve karşılaştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışma Ocak 2005-Aralık 2008 tarihleri arasında acil servise bisiklet kazası ile gelen olguların dosyalarına acil servis ve arşiv kayıtlarından ulaşılarak geriye dönük olarak gerçekleştirildi. Hastalar erişkin ve çocuk yaş grubu olmak üzere iki gruba ayrıldı. Hastaların yaş, cinsiyet, kazaların oluştuğu aylar, yaralanmanın oluştuğu mekan, yaralanma mekanizması, yaralanan vücut bölgeleri, tanı ve tedaviler, taburculuk ve yatış oranları incelendi. İki grubun karşılaştırılmasında Student t testi kullanıldı. Bulgular: Toplam olgu sayısı 150 bulundu. Olguların %79’unu çocuk, %21’ini erişkin yaş grubu oluşturdu. Kazaların sayısının özellikle yaz aylarında arttığı tespit edildi. Çocuklarda oluşan kazaların %71.4’ü erişkinlerin ise tamamı cadde ve sokakta meydana gelmiştir. Çocuklarda (%91) ve erişkinlerde (%90) bisikletten düşme en fazla görülen yaralanma mekanizmasıydı. Baş-boyun bölgesi çocuklarda %32, erişkinlerde ise %40 ile en fazla yaralanmaya maruz kalan vücut bölgesi tespit edildi. Çocuk olguların %78’i, erişkinlerin ise %84’ü acil serviste takip ve tedavi sonrası taburcu edildi. Yaralanma şiddeti açısından iki grup arasında anlamlı fark mevcuttu. Sonuç: Bisiklet kazalarına bağlı yaralanmaların çoğu cadde-sokaklarda, okulun tatil olduğu yaz aylarında ve çocuklarda meydana gelmektedir. Ciddi yaralanmalar erişkinlerde daha fazla görülmektedir.
