ANALYSIS OF TRAFFIC ACCIDENT VICTIMS ADMITTED TO INTENSIVE CARE UNIT IN THE PROVINCE OF KIRSEHIR FROM MAY, 01, 2016 TO MAY, 01, 2018: A RETROSPECTIVE STUDY

Öz

ObjectiveTo present the epidemiologic data of traffic accident victims hospitalized at an intensive care unit.

Material and MethodsMedical files of patients admitted to hospital as a traffic accident victim and hospitalized at intensive care unit from May 01, 2016 to May 01, 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Age, gender, admission time, type of trauma, mechanical ventilation, and surgery were recorded.

ResultsOf the 99300 patients hospitalized due to traffic accidents, 86 patients needed intensive care unit care. Mean age of the patients was 41.80 ± 23.04 years. Fifty-five patients were male, and 31 patients were female. Sixty-two patients were under 60 years of age. Intensive care unit hospitalization was most frequent (39 patients, 45.3%) between 08:00-15:59 hours. Multiple trauma patients constituted 38.4% of the cases. Mean length of stay at the intensive care unit was   2.94 ± 4.01. Of the 86 patients; 51 were transferred to the wards, 14 transferred to a reference hospital, one discharged and 20 patients died. 

ConclusionAlthough patients admitted to intensive care unit due to traffic accidents constitute a small percentage, they still have a high mortality rate. Increasing measures of control at times when traffic accidents are common can prevent deaths in productive age groups.
