The incidence and management of maxillofacial trauma was compared between the first and third lockdowns in the United Kingdom due to the COVID-19 pandemic. From 6 January, 2021 to 8 March 2021, the units that had participated in the collection of data during the first lockdown were asked to update their information into the same database for the third. Nine units participated with 929 entries. Compared to the first lockdown, the number of patients whose treatment had been changed due to the pandemic reduced from 7.6% to 0.4% in the third lockdown. In the UK during the third lockdown there were higher numbers infected with COVID-19 and admitted to hospital than in the first lockdown. Despite this OMFS units that participated in the second study were able to continue the management of maxillofacial trauma without the pandemic affecting care.
由于 COVID-19 大流行，比较了英国第一和第三次封锁期间的颌面外伤发病率和处理。从 2021 年 1 月 6 日至 2021 年 3 月 8 日，要求参与第一次封锁期间数据收集的单位将其信息更新到第三个封锁期间的同一数据库中。有 9 个单位参与了 929 项记录。与第一次封锁相比，由于大流行而改变治疗方案的患者数量从第三次封锁的 7.6%降至 0.4%。在英国，第三次封锁期间感染 COVID-19 并住院的人数高于第一次封锁。尽管如此，参与第二项研究的口腔颌面外科单位仍能够在不受大流行影响的情况下继续管理颌面外伤。
