INTRODUCTION
Work-related traumatic brain injury is a frequent cause of chronic morbidity, mortality, and high treatment costs. Its causes are highly environmentally determined and were affected by COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns.
OBJECTIVE
We aimed to describe traumatic brain injury (TBI) epidemiology in working population and evaluate its modifications during the COVID-19 pandemic.
METHODS
We performed a 2-year retrospective epidemiological analysis of TBI patients hospitalized in a tertiary work-related hospital before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.
RESULTS
In the prepandemic period, TBI patients were predominantly men, with a bimodal age distribution. Crash accidents were the leading work-related traumatic brain injury cause. During COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns, there was a positive correlation between street traffic and TBI rate, presenting increased motor crash accidents as a cause of TBI.
CONCLUSIONS
These results are relevant for planning and focalization of resources for TBI prevention.
简介
工作相关的创伤性脑损伤是导致慢性发病率、死亡率和高治疗费用的常见原因。其病因在很大程度上受环境因素的影响，并受到 COVID-19 大流行封锁的影响。
目的
我们旨在描述工作人群中创伤性脑损伤（TBI）的流行病学，并评估 COVID-19 大流行期间的变化。
方法
我们对一家三级工作相关医院住院的 TBI 患者进行了为期 2 年的回顾性流行病学分析，这些患者在 COVID-19 大流行之前和期间接受了治疗。
结果
在大流行前时期，TBI 患者主要为男性，呈双峰年龄分布。碰撞事故是导致工作相关创伤性脑损伤的主要原因。在 COVID-19 大流行封锁期间，道路交通与 TBI 发生率之间存在正相关关系，机动车事故作为 TBI 的一个原因有所增加。
结论
这些结果对于创伤性脑损伤预防的规划和资源重点具有重要意义。
