To (1) determine the incidence of undergraduate graduate students with alcohol intoxication who presented to our emergency department (ED), (2) examine the demographic correlates of the students, and (3) look at associated injuries that were sustained by the students.
Retrospective case series.
A tertiary care medical center that was located on the campus of a major university.
Undergraduate students with alcohol intoxication who presented to the ED.
Demographic data and associated injuries of intoxicated students who presented to the ED during 2 academic years.
Forty-four students presented with alcohol intoxication for a yearly incidence of 3.9 per 1000 students. Freshmen were overrepresented compared with students in other higher classes, with an incidence of 9.3 per 1000 per year (P < .001). Nine (20%) of the 44 students sustained an injury from a fall, and 1 required mechanical ventilation for treatment of apnea.
Alcohol intoxication that requires emergency care is not uncommon among college students, and many students with alcohol intoxication present to the ED following a fall. Freshmen are particularly likely to present for care in an ED.
(1) 确定到我院急诊科就诊的酒精中毒本科生及研究生的发生率;(2) 研究这些学生的人口统计学相关因素;(3) 观察这些学生所遭受的相关损伤情况。
回顾性病例系列研究。

到急诊科就诊的酒精中毒本科生。
两个学年期间到急诊科就诊的酒精中毒学生的人口统计学数据及相关损伤情况。
44名学生因酒精中毒前来就诊,年发生率为每1000名学生中有3.9例。与其他高年级学生相比,大一新生的比例过高,年发生率为每1000名学生中有9.3例(P < 0.001)。44名学生中有9名(20%)因跌倒受伤,1名因呼吸暂停需要机械通气治疗。
需要急诊治疗的酒精中毒在大学生中并不少见,许多酒精中毒学生在跌倒后到急诊科就诊。大一新生尤其容易到急诊科就诊。
