Clinic–anatomical characteristic of the traffic–transport trauma in the megapolis environment First communication: the damage volume

Abstract

Objective. To determine the damage volume as a significant component of clinical–anatomical characteristic of traumas in the injured persons, who have obtained the trauma as a consequence of the traffic–transport accidents in the megapolis environment. Materials and methods. Retrospective analysis of data, concerning 1139 injured persons, who have got trauma as a consequence of the traffic–transport accidents in the City of Kyiv in the period 2019–2020 yrs. Results. There was established, that up to 70% of the injured persons have got a small volume of damage – with injuries of up to three anatomic–functional sites. Only 9% of such injured persons have got a big volume of trauma. The trauma volume have impacted the result of the traumatic process course with the discovered tendency for enhancement of part of the injured persons, obtaining negative result as a consequence of the trauma volume enhancement. Conclusion. Among the traumas, which were got by the injured persons as a consequence of the traffic–transport accidents in the megapolis environment, the restricted by volume trauma prevails – up to 75.42%. Injuries of four anatomic–functional sites as a consequence of the traffic–transport accidents constitute a critical volume of the damage obtained for these category of injured persons. The damage volume in the injured persons, who were traumatized due to the traffic–transport accidents depends immediately upon such factor as «the taking part in the injured person movement», while the biggest influence have demonstrated the factor of «taking part in the pedestrian movement». The factor, named as a «taking part in movement of the injured person» impacts immediately the result of the traumatic process course in any volume of the damage, and this influence is enhancing with the damage volume enhanced.
