Amaç: Nörolojik hastalık profili yetişkinler ve çocuklar arasında farklılık göstermekle birlikte demografik veri ve tanı dağılımları ile ilgili kısıtlı sayıda çalışma bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmada yeni kurulan çocuk nöroloji polikliniğine başvuran ilk 1000 hastanın geriye yönelik değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Üçüncü basamak bir üniversite hastanesinde yeni kurulan çocuk nöroloji polikliniğine başvuran ilk 1000 hastaya ait dosyalar retrospektif değerlendirildi. Hasta dosyalarından yaş, cinsiyet, tanı, uyruk ve sosyal güvence bilgileri elde edildi.
Bulgular: Çalışmaya alınan hastaların 561’i (%56,1) erkek, 439’ü (%43,9) kız idi. Erkek hastaların yaş ortalaması 64±61 ay (1-216 ay), kız hastaların yaş ortalaması 105,76±56,6 ay (1-216 ay) idi. Olgu sayısının en fazla olduğu yaş grubu 0-2 yaş (n=328, %32,8), en az olduğu yaş grubu 16-18 yaş (n=77, %7,7) idi. Olguların 60’ı (%6) Suriye uyruklu iken, 940’ı ‘(%94) Türkiye Cumhuriyeti (TC) uyruklu idi. Olguların 848 (%84,8)’i genel sağlık sigortası kapsamında idi. Tanı grupları incelendiğinde ilk üç sırada 254 (%25,4) olgu ile epilepsi, 240 (%24) olgu ile sağlıklı çocuk muayenesi ve 139 (%13,9) olgu ile baş ağrısı gelmekte idi.
Sonuç: Çalışmada elde ettiğimiz veriler yeni kurulan üçüncü basamak bir çocuk nöroloji polikliniğine ait hasta profilini detaylandıran ve değerlendiren ilk çalışmadır. Bu çalışma sonucunda hasta profilinin önceden tahmin edilebilmesi ile yeni kurulacak merkezlerin öncelikleri tahmin edilebilecektir. Konu ile ilgili daha fazla sayıda çalışmaya ihtiyaç bulunmaktadır

Aim: The neurological disease profile is different in adult and pediatric patients. There are a limited number of studies on demographic and diagnostic data distributions. This study aimed to retrospectively analyze the first 1,000 patients being admitted to a newly established pediatric neurology outpatient clinic.
Materials and Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed the files of the first 1,000 patients who were admitted to a newly established pediatric neurology outpatient clinic of a tertiary university hospital. Age, gender, diagnosis, nationality, and social security information of the patients were recorded.
Results: Five hundred sixty-one of the patients (56.1%) were male and 439 (43.9%) were female, with a mean age of 64±61 (1–216) months and 105.76±56.6 (1–216) months, respectively. The age groups with the highest and lowest number of cases were the 0–2 years age group (n=328, 32.8%) and the 16–18 years age group (n=77, 7.7%), respectively. Sixty of the patients (6%) were Syrian whereas 940 (94%) were Turkish. Only 848 patients (84.8%) had general health insurance. As for the diagnoses, epilepsy was observed to rank in first place (n=254, 25.4%), followed by healthy child examinations (n=240, 24%), and headache (n=139, 13.9%).
Conclusion: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study investigating and evaluating the patient profile of a newly established tertiary pediatric neurology outpatient clinic in detail. Although it may help predict the priorities of centers to be opened in the future, since it enables the patient profile to be predicted in advance, there is still a need for further studies on this subject.
