Research on the epidemiological characteristics of pediatric trauma in specific regions is limited, making it necessary to conduct corresponding investigations. This study aims to understand the epidemiological characteristics of trauma patients aged 0 to 14 years, providing a reference for the prevention and enhancement of pediatric trauma care. The study analyzed the basic information of 4450 trauma patients aged 0 to 14 years who received treatment at a Level 1 trauma center in Northwest China from June 1, 2022, to May 31, 2024. The results showed that 2935 patients were male and 1515 were female, with a gender ratio of 1.94:1. The patients' ages ranged from 1 month to 14 years, with an average age of 7.52 ± 3.93 years. Among the trauma patients, the number of patients in the 7 to 14 age group was significantly higher than in the 0 to 6 age group, likely due to increased social and physical activities in this age range. The study also found that the main causes of trauma were falls and traffic accidents, with the extremities and skin being the most commonly injured areas. Trauma incidents were notably more frequent between 18:00 and 24:00, with clear seasonal variations. These findings provide valuable insights for the prevention and intervention of pediatric trauma, and future research should further explore the various factors influencing trauma to develop more effective prevention and treatment strategies.
特定地区儿童创伤的流行病学特征研究有限，因此有必要进行相应调查。本研究旨在了解0至14岁创伤患者的流行病学特征，为预防和加强儿童创伤护理提供参考。该研究分析了2022年6月1日至2024年5月31日在中国西北部一家一级创伤中心接受治疗的4450例0至14岁创伤患者的基本信息。结果显示，男性患者2935例，女性患者1515例，性别比为1.94:1。患者年龄范围为1个月至14岁，平均年龄为7.52±3.93岁。在创伤患者中，7至14岁年龄组的患者数量明显高于0至6岁年龄组，这可能是由于该年龄范围内社交和体育活动增加所致。研究还发现，创伤的主要原因是跌倒和交通事故，四肢和皮肤是最常受伤的部位。创伤事件在18:00至24:00之间明显更频繁，且有明显的季节性变化。这些发现为儿童创伤的预防和干预提供了有价值的见解，未来的研究应进一步探索影响创伤的各种因素，以制定更有效的预防和治疗策略。
