估计在急诊科（ED）治疗的老年人跌倒相关损伤的频率和类型。我们使用了2015年国家电子伤害监测系统：所有伤害计划。从描述损伤情况的叙述中提取患者数据。对社区居住老年人（n= 34，336）的数据进行分析，以探讨人口统计学特征、跌倒位置和处置在损伤诊断方面的差异。70%的头部相关损伤是内伤，提示创伤性脑损伤。髋关节损伤以骨折或脱位为主（73.3%）。妇女骨折/脱位的比例高于男子，但内伤的比例低于男子。大约三分之一的跌倒相关艾德就诊需要住院或转院。老年人的福尔斯跌倒会导致一系列伤害，并对医疗保健系统造成负担。了解跌倒伤害如何因不同特征而变化，可以帮助制定有针对性的预防策略。
To estimate frequency and type of older adult fall-related injuries treated in emergency departments (EDs). We used the 2015 National Electronic Injury Surveillance System: All Injury Program. Patient data were abstracted from the narratives describing the circumstance of injury. Data for community-dwelling older adults (n= 34,336) were analyzed to explore differences in injury diagnosis by demographic characteristics, location of fall, and disposition. 70% of head-related injuries were internal injuries, suggestive of a traumatic brain injury. Most hip injuries were fractures or dislocations (73.3%). Women had higher percentages of fractures/dislocations, but lower percentages of internal injuries than men. About a third of fall-related ED visits required hospitalization or transfer. Falls in older adults result in array of injuries and pose a burden on the healthcare system. Understanding how fall injuries vary by different characteristics can help inform targeted prevention strategies.
