Understanding the cause, severity, and elapsed time for the restoration of the functions of maxillofacial injuries can contribute to the establishment of clinical priorities aiming at effective treatment and further prevention of facial trauma. The objective of this study was to understand the factors associated with the restoration of mastication, ocular, and nasal functions in the face of trauma victims, estimating their recovery time after surgical treatment. We analyzed 114 medical records of patients treated at the Hospital Montenegro, who attended follow-up consultations for up to 180 days. For analysis of the recovery time, we performed survival analysis, followed by COX analysis. We observed that half of the patients recovered their functions within 20 days. The average time for recovery from trauma in the zygomatic-orbital-malar-nasal complex was 11 days, and in the maxillary-mandibular complex, 21 days (HR: 1.5 [0.99 2.3], p = 0.055). Although functional reestablishment has reached high rates after the surgical approach, it is necessary to analyze the failing cases, as well as the economic impacts and the prevention strategies associated with facial trauma, to improve the service to the population.
了解颌面损伤功能恢复的原因、严重程度和时间流逝,可以为临床治疗提供优先顺序,旨在有效治疗和进一步预防面部创伤。本研究的目的是了解与创伤患者咀嚼、眼部和鼻部功能恢复相关的因素,估计他们在接受手术治疗后的恢复时间。我们分析了 Montenegro 医院接受治疗的 114 名患者的医疗记录,这些患者在 180 天内接受了随访。为了分析恢复时间,我们进行了生存分析,随后进行 COX 分析。我们观察到,有一半的患者在 20 天内恢复了功能。在颧骨-眶-上颌-鼻部复合体中,创伤恢复的平均时间为 11 天,而在上颌-下颌复合体中为 21 天(HR:1.5[0.99-2.3],p=0.055)。尽管手术治疗后功能恢复达到了较高的比例,但仍有必要分析失败的病例,以及与面部创伤相关的经济影响和预防策略,以改善对人群的服务。
