- W2090936446 abstract "Fractures account for significant morbidity during childhood. Children requiring inpatient management for their fractures represent the most serious injuries. The aim of this study was to identify injury patterns in childhood fractures requiring inpatient management at a regional trauma centre.Three thousand and forty two consecutive injured children were admitted to our orthopaedic centre over a 4-year period. Data was prospectively collected by independent audit clerks and entered onto a database. Data recorded included type of injury, mechanism of injury and place of injury. This was then used to assess injury patterns and trends.Upper limb and lower limb fractures accounted for 51% (n=1,565) and 21% (n=637) of all emergency admissions, respectively. Other causes included soft tissue injury, Infections, Polytrauma and Dislocations. Twice as many males were admitted with upper or lower limb fractures compared to females (67% versus 33%) (P<0.001). Males were more likely to be older (P<0.001) compared to females. Distal radial fractures accounted for 60% of upper limb fractures. Distal and midshaft tibial fractures accounted for 52% of lower limb fractures. Sports injuries were responsible for the majority of lower limb fractures with falls accounting for the majority of upper limb fractures. Fracture incidence peaked during summer months.Males are twice as likely to require inpatient management for fractures as females. Male adolescents are particularly at risk. Distal radial fractures following falls and distal tibial fractures following sports injuries are the most common fractures requiring admission. Identifying ways of minimising risk of these injuries would reduce childhood morbidity." @default.
