概括
增加低级创伤中心 (LLTC) 增加了转移,但没有提高生存率. 这种快速扩散可能会使透创伤患者的结果恶化,这表明需要计划创伤系统的开发.
科学领域:
- 创伤护理系统的创伤护理系统
- 公共卫生政策 公共卫生政策
- 紧急医疗 紧急医疗
背景情况:
- 各州的目标是通过增加创伤中心数量来扩大创伤系统覆盖范围.
- 在2008年至2012年期间,21个3级和4级创伤中心被添加到现有的创伤网络中.
- 这项研究调查了低级创伤中心 (LLTC) 扩张对患者治疗结果的影响.
研究的目的:
- 评估增加众多低级创伤中心对患者死亡率和结果的影响.
- 确定LLTCs的扩散是否独立地影响不同患者亚组的生存率.
- 为未来的创伤系统规划和资源分配提供信息.
主要方法:
- 对2007年 (扩展前) 和2008-2012年 (扩展后) 成人创伤登记数据的分析.
- 在扩张前和扩张后的队列之间比较人口,伤害和结果变量.
- 多变量逻辑回归以确定死亡率预测因子,对重伤,老年患者和创伤机制进行子组分析.
主要成果:
- 扩展后队列 (POST) 包括更多的女性,老年患者和重创伤病例.
- 整体死亡率略有下降 (0.6%),但多变量分析显示POST和存活率之间没有关联 (OR:1.07).
- 设施间转移显著增加 (10.2%),POST趋势是透创伤患者的死亡率增加 (OR:1.23).
结论:
- 快速,不受管制的LLTCs的增长导致了医院间转移的增加,而没有相应的增加治疗创伤患者.
- LLTC的扩散并没有改善整体生存率,并且可能对透创伤受害者的结果产生负面影响.
- 建议采取战略性,计划性的创伤系统开发方法,而不是简单地增加LLTC的数量.

Rural Health Centers
Rural health centers are specialized care facilities in remote locations with very few medical personnel. The primary care providers who run the centers are mostly Registered Nurse Practitioners. Here, emergency treatment is provided to critically ill or injured patients before they are transferred to the closest hospital. Fortunately, due to advancement in technology, many rural healthcare facilities and professionals have easy access to diagnostic and treatment...
