Previous reports have shown a marked decrease in the incidence of acute appendicitis. This study has set out to discover whether this decrease has continued. The pathology records over 15 years have been reviewed to tabulate the frequency of appendicitis in one large district general hospital. The results were then analysed statistically. The incidence of acute appendicitis was seen to decrease from approximately 100 to 52 over the 15-year period. This continuing decrease in the incidence of acute appendicitis has implications on acute surgical bed usage, experience for trainee surgeons and referral patterns for general practitioners.
先前的报告显示急性阑尾炎的发病率显著下降。本研究旨在探究这种下降趋势是否仍在持续。回顾了15年的病理记录，以统计一家大型地区综合医院阑尾炎的发病频率。然后对结果进行了统计分析。在这15年期间，急性阑尾炎的发病率从约100例降至52例。急性阑尾炎发病率的持续下降对急性外科病床的使用、实习外科医生的经验以及全科医生的转诊模式都有影响。
