Abstract

: This study aims to evaluate neurosurgery consultations for elderly patients during and following the COVID-19 pandemic. : This study included patients aged 65 and older who were hospitalized in non-neurosurgery departments at Istinye University Gaziosmanpasa Medical Park Hospital and were referred for neurosurgery consultations between 1 April 2020 and 31 May 2024. Patients in the intensive care unit and emergency department were excluded. The period from 1 April 2020 to 30 April 2022 was defined as the pandemic period, and from 1 May 2022 to 31 May 2024 as the post-pandemic period. : A total of 123 patients were included in this study, with 57 from the pandemic period and 66 from the post-pandemic period. The average age during the pandemic period was 73.45 years (range: 65-93), compared to 71.09 years (range: 65-94) in the post-pandemic period. During the pandemic, 26.3% of patients were recommended for physical therapy and rehabilitation, 24.6% were advised to undergo surgery, 19.3% received neurology consultations, and 17.5% received medical treatment. In the post-pandemic period, 37.9% were recommended for surgery, 16.7% for neurology, 13.6% for physical therapy and rehabilitation, and 7.6% for medical treatment. Overall, 56.4% of patients accepted surgery. : Despite the high prevalence of comorbidities in geriatric patients, appropriate neurosurgical referrals significantly improve treatment success, enhance quality of life and mobility, and reduce mortality. We therefore recommend earlier and more attentive referrals to neurosurgery for elderly patients with relevant symptoms to facilitate timely and effective interventions.

摘要

本研究旨在评估2019冠状病毒病大流行期间及之后老年患者的神经外科会诊情况。本研究纳入了65岁及以上在伊斯坦布尔大学加济奥斯曼帕夏医学公园医院非神经外科科室住院,并于2020年4月1日至2024年5月31日期间被转诊进行神经外科会诊的患者。重症监护病房和急诊科的患者被排除。2020年4月1日至2022年4月30日期间被定义为大流行期,2022年5月1日至2024年5月31日为大流行后期。本研究共纳入123例患者,其中大流行期57例,大流行后期66例。大流行期患者的平均年龄为73.45岁(范围:65 - 93岁),大流行后期为71.09岁(范围:65 - 94岁)。在大流行期间,26.3%的患者被建议进行物理治疗和康复,24.6%的患者被建议接受手术,19.3%的患者接受了神经内科会诊,17.5%的患者接受了药物治疗。在大流行后期,37.9%的患者被建议进行手术,16.7%的患者被建议进行神经内科会诊,13.6%的患者被建议进行物理治疗和康复,7.6%的患者被建议进行药物治疗。总体而言,56.4%的患者接受了手术。尽管老年患者合并症的患病率很高,但适当的神经外科转诊显著提高了治疗成功率,改善了生活质量和活动能力,并降低了死亡率。因此,我们建议对有相关症状的老年患者更早、更细致地转诊至神经外科,以便及时进行有效的干预。
