| الوصف: | INTRODUCTION: In the geriatric population, body response to trauma changes with age-varying physiology. Scoring systems are studied in many patient groups and diseases in terms of hospitalization requirement and prognosis prediction. In this study, we aimed to determine the demographic characteristics of patients over 65 years of age who applied to the emergency department with trauma, and to evaluate the RTS score together with the form of trauma. METHODS: The study is a prospective, cross-sectional study. Trauma patients aged 65 and over who applied to a university hospital emergency room between 01/12 / 2017- 31/05/2018 were included in the study. Demographic data, vital signs, physical examination findings, imaging, laboratory results, erythrocyte suspension (ES) requirement, patient outcomes, and in-hospital and 28-day mortality were recorded. RTS scores of all patients were calculated. RESULTS: During the study period, 4898 geriatric patients applied to the emergency department. 229 patients with the inclusion criteria were included in our study. 153 (66.81%) of the study patients were women and the median age was 79 (IQR 72-86). The most common comorbid disease in patients was hypertension (n = 109, 47.59%). The most common complaint was to drop. The median RTS of the patients was found to be 12. When the last diagnoses of the patients were analyzed, it was seen that soft tissue trauma (YDT) (31.87%) and femur / hip fracture (23.58%) were the most common. Compared to normal and low patients according to RTS scores, it was observed that the group with low Alzheimer / dementia, presence of previous stroke, erythrocyte suspension requirement and mortality rate were higher (p |
