To determine whether day and time of admission influences the practice patterns of the admitting general surgeon and subsequent outcomes for patients diagnosed with small bowel obstruction.
A retrospective database review was carried out, covering patients admitted with the presumed diagnosis of partial small bowel obstruction from 2004-2011.
A total of 404 patients met the inclusion criteria. One hundred and thirty-nine were admitted during the day, 93 at night and 172 on the weekend. Overall 30.2% of the patients were managed operatively with no significant difference between the groups (P = 0.89); however, of patients taken to the operating room, patients admitted during the day received operative intervention over 24 hours earlier than those admitted at a weekend, 0.79 days vs 1.90 days, respectively (P = 0.05). Overall mortality was low at 1.7%, with no difference noted between the groups (P = 0.35). Likewise there was no difference in morbidity rates between the three groups (P = 0.90).
Despite a faster time to operative intervention in those patients admitted during the day, our study revealed that time of admission does not appear to correlate to patient outcome or mortality.
确定入院日期和时间是否会影响接诊普通外科医生的治疗模式,并进而影响诊断为小肠梗阻患者的治疗效果。
对 2004 年至 2011 年间以疑似部分性小肠梗阻入院的患者进行回顾性数据库研究。
共有 404 名患者符合纳入标准。其中 139 名患者在白天入院,93 名在夜间入院,172 名在周末入院。总体而言,30.2%的患者接受了手术治疗,各组之间无显著差异(P=0.89);然而,在接受手术治疗的患者中,白天入院的患者比周末入院的患者接受手术干预的时间早 24 小时以上,分别为 0.79 天和 1.90 天(P=0.05)。总体死亡率较低,为 1.7%,各组之间无差异(P=0.35)。同样,三组之间的发病率也没有差异(P=0.90)。
尽管白天入院的患者接受手术干预的时间更快,但本研究表明,入院时间似乎与患者的预后或死亡率无关。
