Abstract:
Objective To analyze the clinical features and risk factors of death in pediatric trauma,in order to provide preventing strategies and reduce mortality.Methods A retrospective study of 7936 traumatic children admitted to the emergency department of our hospital from April 2014 to March 2016 was conducted.We retrospectively summarized the clinical features and Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of death in children with trauma.Results Compared to females,male patients contributed higher percentages(1.73∶1).There were more migrant children(5535 cases) than local ones(2 401 cases)(χ2=14.314,P＜0.05).Children in infancy stage(2 024 cases)and toddler period(3 097 cases) were more than in the other periods.Limb[41.9%(3 324/7 936)] and skin injuries[38.5%(3 058 324/7 936)] were the most common.Children trauma causes varied with age,fall,tumble and traffic accidents were common causes of children trauma.Pediatric trauma score of surviving group(n=1933),death group(n=5),general ward group(n=1852) and ICU group(n=86) were 8.53± 2.17,3.17± 1.29,9.72± 1.25,5.23± 1.84,respectively.Shock decompensation,mechanical ventilation,Glasgow coma scale ≤7 and pediatric trauma score＜8 were the risk factors which caused the death of trauma.Conclusion Parents should improve the security sense,strengthen the care of children and obey the traffic rules to reduce the rate of children trauma.Clinicians should pay attention to shock decompensation,mechanical ventilation,Glasgow coma scale and pediatric trauma score in order to identify critically ill patients in early stage and improve the success rate of rescue.
