Abstract:
Objective To investigate the influencing factors for trauma-induced tibia1 infection in underground coal mine.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 1 090 patients with tibial fracture complicated by bone infection who were injured in underground coal mine and admitted to our hospital from January 1995 to August 2015,including the type of trauma,injured parts,severity,and treatment outcome.The association between risk factors and infection was analyzed.Results Among the 1 090 patients,357 had the clinical manifestations of acute and chronic bone infection,219 had red and swollen legs with heat pain,and 138 experienced skin necrosis,rupture,and discharge of pus.The incidence rates of tibial infection from 1995 to 2001,from 2002 to 2008,and from 2009 to 2015 were 31％,26.9％,and 20.2％,respectively.The incidence rate of bone infection in the proximal segment of the tibia was significantly higher than that in the middle and distal segments (42.1％ vs 18.9％/27.1％,P＜0.01).As for patients with different types of trauma (Gustilo typing),the patients with type Ⅲ fracture had a significantly higher incidence rate of bone infection than those with type Ⅰ/Ⅱ infection (52.8％ vs 21.8％/24.6％,P＜0.01).The incidence rates of bone infection after bone traction,internal fixation with steel plates,fixation with external fixator,and fixation with intramedullary nail were 20.7％,43.5％,21.4％,and 26.1％,respectively,suggesting that internal fixation with steel plates had a significantly higher incidence rate of bone infection than other fixation methods(P＜0.01).The muhivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the position of tibial fracture and type of fracture were independent risk factors for bone infection.Conclusion There is a high incidence rate of trauma-induced tibial infection in workers in underground coal mine.The position of tibial fracture and type of fracture are independent risk factors for bone infection.Vacuum sealing drainage and Ilizarov technique can achieve a satisfactory therapeutic effect.
