The aim of this study was to analyze the results of 9 years of trauma care and data collection in a level 1 urban trauma center in Northern Italy. Overall, 6065 patients have been included in the study; the number of patients managed yearly has doubled between 2011 and 2019. This rise mostly involved patients with injury severity score (ISS) < 16. Most injuries (94%) were blunt. Road traffic accidents, especially involving motorcycles, were the most common cause of injury. Self-inflicted injuries were responsible for less than 5% of trauma but they were severe in 56% of cases. The median age was 38 and it remained constant over the years; 43% of patients had 14-39 years of age. Different characteristics and patterns of injury were observed for each age group and gender. Males were more likely to be injured in the central years of life while females presented a trimodal pattern in the age distribution. Young adults (14-39 years old) were overall at higher risk of self-harm. Overall mortality was equal to 5.2%. Most deceased were male and ≥ 65 years of age.
本研究旨在分析意大利北部一家一级城市创伤中心 9 年来的创伤救治和数据收集结果。总体而言,共有 6065 名患者纳入研究;2011 年至 2019 年,每年接受治疗的患者数量增加了一倍。这种增长主要涉及损伤严重程度评分(ISS)<16 的患者。大多数损伤(94%)为钝性损伤。道路交通伤害,尤其是涉及摩托车的事故,是最常见的损伤原因。自残造成的创伤不到 5%,但其中 56%的患者伤情严重。中位年龄为 38 岁,多年来保持不变;43%的患者年龄在 14-39 岁之间。不同年龄组和性别之间观察到了不同的损伤特征和模式。男性更可能在中年受伤,而女性的年龄分布呈三峰模式。年轻人(14-39 岁)总体上自残风险更高。总体死亡率为 5.2%。大多数死者为男性且年龄≥65 岁。
