Abstract

Objectives: To determine demographic characteristics, accident location, and to elucidate transport time and mortality of patients presenting after motor vehichie crash to the emergency department at Erzurum Numune Hospital. Materials and Methods: 1200 traffic accident victims (897 males [74.8%], 303 females [25.2%]; mean age 31.47+18.67; range 2 months to 92 years) (TAV) who arrived at our emergency service (ES) in the year 2005 and also recorded in the police forensic data were studied retrospectively. The data were analyzed in SPSS 11.01 and )(2 test and t test were used for statistics. Results: The mortality rate of TAV was 1.3%. 16 TAV died in ES or before entering ES, with female/male proportion of 1:2 and with the mean age 25.7+23.1 (range 2-69 years). The highest mortality rate was for patients below 18 years old (2.6%). The mean age of the patients arrived from neighbouring cities was higher (p

Özet

Giriş: Bu çalışmadaki amacımız, Erzurum Numune Hastanesi Acil Servisi'ne getirilen trafik kazası vakalarının sosyodemografik özelliklerinin, vakaların geldiği yerlerin, sevk hızının ve mortalitesinin belirlenmesidir. Gereç ve Yöntem: 2005 yılında trafik kazası nedeniyle acil servise başvuran ve adli polis kayıtlarına geçen 1200 hasta (897 erkek [%74.8], 303 kadın [%25.2]; ort. yaş 31.47+18.67; dağılım 2 ay-92 yıl) geriye dönük olarak incelendi. Veriler SPSS 11.01 programına (SPSS, Inc., Chicago, İL) girildi ve çok gözlü ki-kare (%2) ve t testi uygulanarak istatistiksel incelemeleri yapıldı. Bulgular: Acil serviste trafik kazalarına bağlı mortalite %1.3'idi. Acilde ölen veya acile ölü olarak getirilen hastalar içinde erkekler (n=16) kadınların iki katıydı ve yaş ortalamaları 25.7±23.1 bulundu. En yüksek ölüm hızı 18 yaş altında saptandı (%2.6). Erzurum il sınırları dışından gelen hastaların yaş ortalaması anlamlı derecede yüksek bulundu (p
