Amaç: Acil servisler adli olguların ilk başvurduğu tetkik tanı ve tedavilerinin yapıldığı yerlerdir Bu çalışmanın amacı bir eğitim araştırma hastanesi acil servisine başvuran çocuk adli olguların demografik epidemiyolojik özelliklerini ortaya koymak başvuru nedenlerini başvuru zamanlarını ve yatış ve ölüm oranlarını belirlemektir.

Gereç ve Yöntem: Bir eğitim araştırma hastanesinde acil servise bir yıl içinde başvuruda bulunan 16 yaş altı olan çocuk adli olgular geriye dönük olarak değerlendirildi Çocuk adli olgular; travmatik olan trafik kazaları darp iş kazası kesici delici alet yaralanması yüksekten düşme ateşli silah yaralanması ve diğer ve travmatik olmayan çocuk adli olgular intihar girişimi karbonmonoksit entoksikasyonu olarak iki grupta incelendi.

Bulgular: Bu çalışmada değerlendirilen 1494 çocuk adli olguların yaş ortalaması 8 8 plusmn;4 37 yıl olup bu çocuk adli olguların 66 rsquo;sı erkekti n=986 Çalışmada en fazla başvuru 7 10 yaş grubunda idi 29 5 En sık başvuru nedeni trafik kazası 76 4 olarak saptandı bunu 12 7 ile yüksekten düşme ve 6 1 ile darp izledi Çocuk adli olguların en fazla yaz aylarında ve akşam saatlerinde başvurduğu gözlendi Olguların 9 2 rsquo;sinin yatırılarak tedavi edildiği ve 1 9 rsquo;una yoğun bakım yatışı gerektiği ve ölüm oranının 0 4 olduğu saptandı.

Çıkarımlar: Çocukluk çağındaki adli olguların büyük çoğunluğu önlenebilir sağlık sorunlarıdır Yeni yöntemlerin geliştirilmesi koruyucu önlemlerin alınması ve acil servislerde uygun tıbbi yaklaşım sağlanabilmesi için her bölgenin adli olgu tutumlarının belirlenmesi önemlidir.
