背景:三次救急医療機関である当院における外傷性小児骨折の傾向を調査した.
対象と方法:2008年1月から2012年12月までに当院を受診した15歳以下の小児骨折646例を対象とし,受傷部位,受傷機転などについて診療録と単純X線像を調査した.
結果:上肢骨折は下肢の4.6倍であった.就学期前は転倒・転落による上腕骨顆上骨折が,就学期以降はスポーツによる橈骨遠位端骨折や手指骨折が多発していた.
まとめ:小児骨折の多くが低エネルギーによる上肢骨折であり,転倒・転落防止策やスポーツの安全対策を啓発し,受傷数を減らす努力が必要である.
Background:We reviewed pediatric fractures treated in our tertiary emergency medical facility.
Methods:We retrospectively analyzed data related to 646 patients 15 years of age and under who were treated for fractures in our hospital between 2008 and 2012.
Results:The ratio of upper extremity fractures to lower extremity fractures was 4.6:1. The most frequent diagnosis in the 0−6 year age group was supracondylar humerus fracture due a fall. Many patients in the 7−15 year age group were diagnosed with sports-related distal radius fractures and hand fractures.
Conclusions:Most pediatric fractures occurred in the upper extremity and were caused by low-energy trauma. Children and their guardians need to be educated about safety measures in regard to falls and sports in order to reduce injuries.
