چکیده
Introduction: The novel COVID-19 disease was presented at first in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. During COVID-19 pandemic, approaching trauma patients, whom could have COVID-19, is a challenging issue required special consideration and healthcare setting.
Methods and materials: This retrospective cohort study was conducted at Emtiaz hospital, the main trauma center of the south of Iran, between March 2020 and August 2020 from the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Trauma-related data such as the mechanism of trauma, injury pattern, and surgical intervention procedure of all the suspicious COVID-19 patients were documented. ICU admission and mortality rate were investigated as outcome variables.
Results: During six months of the pandemic period, 9248 patients were referred to our referral trauma center, with 222 patients suspicious of having COVID-19 infection. Among sixty-four cases, whom were confirmed to be positive, 33 orthopedic injured patients were observed. The mortality rate of COVID-19 positive cases was 15.6 % (10 patients out of 64) and COVID-19 negative ones was 10.1 % (16 patients out of 158) which was not statistically significant (p.value:0.25). Multivariate analysis of the effect of the baseline and trauma related factors on mortality rate, showed that older age (p. value: 0.001), COVID-19 infection (p. value: 0.033), and surgical procedure (p.value:0.038) are the poor prognostic factors associated with mortality rate.
Conclusion:. The mortality rate of trauma patients with COVID-19 positive infection was 15.6 % (10 patients). Older age, COVID-19 infection, and surgical procedure were observed as the statistically significant prognostic factors leading to more mortality rate.
