ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT

Objective:

To describe the profile of patients with facial trauma admitted in a hospital located in a metropolitan area of Northeast Brazil.

Methods:

A cross-sectional and exploratory study was performed. A total of 244 cases were in agreement with the eligibility criteria. The variables include the sociodemographic characteristics of patients, etiology, type of trauma, treatment modalities, length of stay in a hospital and quarter of care. Descriptive statistics and Cluster Analysis were performed.

Results:

The average age of patients was 31.16 years (SD = 15.17 years) and average hospitalization was 6.32 days (SD = 7.75 days). It was verified the automatic formation of four clusters with different profiles of patients. The variables which most contributed to the external differentiation between clusters were length of stay in a hospital (p <0.001), etiology (p <0.001), type of facial trauma (p <0.001), presence of associated trauma (p <0.001), treatment modalities (p <0.001) and quarter of care (p <0.001).

Conclusion:

The most of patients were men, victims of traffic accidents, which suffered fracture of zygomatic complex and underwent surgery. Level of Evidence III, Retrospective Study.

RESUMO

Objetivo:

Traçar o perfil dos pacientes internados com trauma de face em um hospital localizado em região metropolitana do Nordeste do Brasil.

Métodos:

Tratou-se de estudo transversal e exploratório. Um total de 244 casos atendeu aos critérios de elegibilidade, sendo incluídos na amostra. As variáveis estudadas incluíram características sociodemográficas das vítimas, etiologia, tipos de traumas, modalidades de tratamento, tempo de internação e trimestre de atendimento. Foi feita estatística descritiva e análise de cluster.

Resultados:

A média de idade dos pacientes foi 31,16 anos (DP = 15,17 anos) e o tempo médio de internação foi de 6,32 dias (DP = 7,75 dias). Verificou-se a formação automática de quatro clusters com perfis distintos de pacientes. As variáveis que mais contribuíram para a diferenciação externa entre os clusters foram tempo de internação (p < 0,001), etiologia (p < 0,001), tipo do trauma facial (p < 0,001), presença de trauma associado (p < 0,001), tipo de tratamento (p < 0,001) e trimestre de atendimento (p < 0,001).

Conclusão:

A maioria dos pacientes eram homens, vítimas de acidentes de trânsito, que apresentaram fratura do complexo zigomático, submetidos a tratamento cirúrgico. Nível de Evidência III, Estudo Retrospectivo.
