Abstract

Amaç: Çalışmamızın amacı, çocuk yanık merkezimizde temas yanıkları nedeniyle yatırılarak tedavi ettiğimiz hastaların epidemiyo-lojik, karakteristik özellikleri ve uygulanan tedavi yöntemlerini değerlendirmek ve konuyla ilgili tecrübelerimizi paylaşmaktır.

Araçlar ve yöntem: Hastaların dosyaları retrospektif olarak tarandı. Cinsiyet, yaş, temas şekilleri, lokalizasyonu, total yanık yüzey alanları, yanığın derinliği, yandıktan kaç gün sonra hastaneye yatırıldıkları, greft yapılıp yapılmadığı, hastanede yatış süreleri, hipertrofik skar ve eklem kontraktürleri gelişip gelişmediği kaydedildi. Ardından kız ve erkek hastalar arasında fark olup olmadığı, temas yanıklarının hangi yaş aralıklarında ve hangi aylarda daha fazla görüldüğü araştırıldı. İstatistiksel analiz SPSS version 21 paket programı ile yapıldı. Tüm değişkenler için P< 0.05 anlamlı olarak kabul edildi.

Bulgular: Toplam 29 hastanın 17’si (%58.6) erkek ve 12’si (%41.4) kız, ortalama yaşları 3.34 yıl, ortalama total yanık yüzey alanları % 4.48, yandıktan sonra hastaneye yatırılma süreleri ortalama 6.34 gün ve hastanede yatış süreleri ortalama 13.20 gün olarak bulundu. En sık görülen temas yanığı nedeni sobaya dokunma (%51.8), en sık yanan vücut bölgesi yüz (% 58.6) olarak tespit edildi. Eller ikinci en sık yanan (%55.2) organlardı. Hastaların %86.2’sı dört yaşından küçük ve çoğu evlerinde yanmışlardı.

Sonuç: Temas yanıklarının çoğu küçük çocuklarda ve evde meydana gelen önlenebilir kazalar sonucu meydana gelmektedir. Bu yanıkları önlemek için ebeveynler eğitilmeli ve alınması gereken tedbirler anlatılmalıdır. Özellikle el yanıklarında kontraktür geliş-mesini önlemek için erken istirahat atelleri kullanılmalı ve erken dönemde fizik tedavi egzersizlerine başlanmalıdır.

Abstract

Purpose: We aimed to evaluate epidemiological, characteristic features and treatment methods of patients who have been treated in pediatric burn center due to contact burns and to share our experiences.

Materials and Methods: Files of patients were evaluated retrospectively. Gender, age, contact mechanisms, localization, total-burned-surface areas, depth of burn, time between day-of-burn and admission to the burn center, whether grafting was made, length-of-stay in hospital, whether hypertrophic scar and contractures developed were recorded. Then, it was investigated whether there was a difference between genders, and at what age intervals and in which months contact burns were seen more frequently. Statistical analysis was done with SPSS version 21. P <0.05 was considered significant.

Results: Of 29 patients, 17 (58.6%) were boys and 12 (41.4%) were girls, their mean-age was 3.34 years, average-total-burned-surface-area was 4.48%, average day between day of the burn and admission to burn center was 6.34, and the mean length-of-stay in hospital was 13.20 days. The most common cause was touching the stove (51.8%), the most common burned-region was the face (58.6%). Hands were the second most frequently burned-organs (55.2%). Mostly patients were burnt at home and 86.2% of them were <4 years old.

Conclusion: Most contact burns occur in young children as a result of preventable home accidents. In order to prevent, parents should be educated and precautions to be taken should be explained. Especially in hand burns, early resting splints should be used to prevent contracture development and physical therapy exercises should be started in the early period.
