Birçok ülke ile birlikte, ülkemizde de kısıtlamalar getirilmiştir. Bu çalışma, sokağa çıkma yasağının olduğu dönemlerde acil servise başvuran travma hastalarının özelliklerini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Gereç ve Yöntem: Kısıtlamaların yoğun olduğu üç aylık period (1/3/2020 – 1/6/2020) ile bir önceki yılın aynı periyodundaki (1/3/2019 - 1/6/2019) travma nedenli başvuruların klinik özellikleri karşılaştırıldı. Demografik özellikleri, yaralanma mekanizması, hastaneye yatış ihtiyacı ve hasta sonlanımları değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Pandeminin kısıtlama döneminde bir öncesi yıla göre hasta başvuru oranında % 17,25’lik düşüş belirlendi. Bu düşüşün özellikle 85 yaş ve altında anlamlı olduğu bulundu ( KW - Pandemi KW - kısıtlama dönemi KW - COVID 19 KW - travma KW - acil servis N2 - Aim: The COVID-19 epidemic has affected the entire health system worldwide. Along with many countries, restrictions have been introduced in our country. We aim to examine the characteristics of trauma patients who applied to the emergency department during the pandemic lockdown. Material and Methods: We compared the clinical features of the trauma-related admissions in the three month periods (1/3/2020 – 1/6/2020) with the pandemic lockdown and the same period of the previous year (1/3/2019 - 1/6/2019). Demographic characteristics, mechanism of injury, need for hospitalization, and patient outcomes were evaluated.Results: During the pandemic lockdown period, the patient admission rate decreased by 17.25% compared to the previous year. This decrease was found to be significant, especially for those under 85 years old ( CR - Chiba H, Lewis M, Benjamin E.R, et al.
