Resumen

The article aims to describe the profile of elderly victims of falls and traffic accidents from the data of the Surveillance Survey of Violence and Accidents (VIVA). The VIVA Survey was conducted in the emergency health-services of the Unified Health System in the capitals of Brazil in 2011. The sample of elderly by type of accident was subjected to the two-step cluster procedure. Of the 2463 elderly persons in question, 79.8% suffered falls and 20.2% were the victims of traffic accidents. The 1812 elderly who fell were grouped together into 4 clusters: Cluster 1, in which all had disabilities

Resumen

505 kindergarten and primary school children from 4 to 13 years of age were treated for school sports injuries during the period 1990–1997. The incidence of injuries increased statistically significantly from .5 per 1,000 children 4- to 5-yr.-old to 4.8 injured children per 1,000 in 12- to 13-yr.-old. 59% of the injuries involved upper extremities; 35% of these were in the wrist region. 33.5% of the injuries were of the lower extremities, with 50% being of the feet and 36.4% of the ankle.

Resumen

Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is an injury located on the medulla spinalis, which could cause damage to the motor and sensory system. There are four mechanisms of accidents, which are traffic accidents, falls from height, sports accidents, and occupation-related accidents. Research regarding SCI caused by accident in Denpasar is still limited; therefore, to understand patients’ demography and clinical characteristics, further research is needed. Subjects and Methods: This research was a descriptive, cross-sectional research using total sampling and a prospective approach taken from the

Resumen

During primary dentition, the etiology changes by age group. For instance, traumas secondary to collisions and falls are attributable to early movement within the first six years, while accidents secondary to frequent playing are the main reason within the following nine years, and violence is the most common etiology until the age of 25 years old. Previous studies have estimated that traumas from falls, sporting activities, bicycling, traffic accidents, and violence were the most common causes of dental injuries in children.

A relatively large number of older patients (34 patients over 65 years old) were treated recently at Harborview Medical Center, enabling a retrospective comparison with similarly treated younger patients (33 patients aged 18 to 40 years). Clinical information and computerized tomography morphometric data were obtained. Patients in the younger

Resumen

Introduction: Children, especially those under the age of five, seldom get hip dislocations. Young children may sustain dislocations from minor accidents such as slips or falls from low heights, whereas adolescents typically do so from high-intensity events such as car crashes or collision sports. Posterior dislocation occurs 8–9 times more frequently than those in the anterior. Here, we describe about the acute posterior hip dislocation suffered by a 5-year-old boy in this case report. Case Report: A 5-year-old girl reported to ER with left hip pain and difficulty to walk after slipping and f

Resumen

Background: The causes of femur fractures are diverse and can be influenced by several factors. These bone fractures often occur due to high-impact trauma, such as car accidents, sports injuries, or other traumatic events that result in excessive stress on the bone. Another contributing factor is bone energy or strength reduction, which is frequently observed in the elderly population. Methods: This study is retrospective descriptive research with cross-sectional data collection.

Resumen

AbstractEight hundred and six medical and surgical patients who were hospitalized via the emergency ward were followed over their entire inpatient stays and rated in anterograde, double-blind fashion for inpatient incidents (falls, medication errors, other). Injuries were minor but affected 2.2% of admissions, a figure which is strikingly similar to studies in other hospitals. There was a statistical trend toward a higher-than-normal risk of hazardous in-hospital incidents for males age 20 to 40 admitted because of injury and for medically ill females over 60 years old.
