Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the days of hospitalization of acute transverse myelitis and its influencing factors.Methods File's of 158 patients with acute transverse myelitis as the first diagnosis in Feicheng Mining Centre Hospital were analyzed retrospectively.Access to the original medical records through the medical record number, and supplemented information, mainly including demographic data, neurological function defect degree, complications and complications.Results Hospitalization time was 4-41 d, an average of (17±6) d,including 23 patients hospitalized time ≤ 10 d(14.56％), 83 cases were ＞ 10-＜20 d(52.53％), 52 cases was≥20 d(32.91％).Age and Neurological score comparative differences are statistically significant (F=60.90,8.68, P＜0.05).Payment method, deep vein thrombosis, comparative differences were statistically significant(x2 =20.04, 14.27, 12.17,9.37,7.05;P＜0.05).There were ralationship between acute transverse myelitis with age, neurological score, payment (OR =1.140, 0.500,83.930,0.041;P＜ 0.005).Conclusion The degree of neurologic impairment is the most important influencing factors of acute transverse myelitis.Controlling hospital infection, preventing deep vein thrombosis, strengthening medical insurance management, are the effective ways to shorten the days of hospitalization of acute transverse myelitis.
