Abstract

There has been an increase in gun-related crime in Ireland over the last decade to gangland violence, especially in west Dublin. This places a burden on hospital services not previously encountered. The aim of this study was to examine the demographics of gunshot: injuries presenting to a Dublin teaching hospital, and the impact on radiology over a ten year period. A total of 65 gunshot injuries were seen. Mortality for high velocity wounds was much higher (10/23, 43%) than for low-velocity shotgun injuries (2/34, 6%).

摘要

在过去十年间，爱尔兰与枪支相关的犯罪增加到了黑帮暴力的程度，尤其是在都柏林西部。这给医院服务带来了前所未有的负担。本研究的目的是调查都柏林一家教学医院收治的枪伤患者的人口统计学特征，以及在十年期间对放射学的影响。共观察到65例枪伤。高速伤的死亡率（10/23，43%）远高于低速霰弹枪伤（2/34，6%）。
