Amaç
Acil servise minör kafa travması ile başvuran çocuklardaki anamnez ve muayene bulgularına göre, hangilerinde daha ciddi tomografi görüntüleri olduğunu ve beyin tomografilerinin gerekliliğini tespit etmeyi amaçladık. Ayrıca bu bulgular ile operasyon gerekliliği arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemeyi amaçladık.

Gereç ve Yöntemler
Çalışmamız 01.01.2013- 31.12.2015 tarihleri arasında Sivas Devlet (Numune) Hastanesi acil servise minör kafa travmasıyla başvuran 835 hasta ile retrospektif olarak yapılmıştır. Kafa travması nedeniyle acil servise ilk 24 saatte getirilen çocukların yaş, cinsiyet, vital bulgular, kafa travmasının, yeri ve şekli, nörolojik ve mental durumu, kusma olup olmadığı radyolojik bulguları ve cerrahi müdahale yapılıp yapılmadığı gibi durumlar değerlendirilmiştir.

Bulgular
Hastaların 41 (4.9%)’inde hematom büyüklüğünün 2 santimetreden (cm) daha büyük olduğu, 65 (7.8%)’inde hematom yerinin parietal bölge olduğu görülmüştür. Anamnezinde senkop, nöbet ve bilinç bulanıklığı olan hastalarda daha ciddi klinik durumlar tespit edilmiştir. Hastaların 12 (1.4%)’sine cerrahi müdahale yapılmıştır. Cerrahi müdahale yapılan hastaların hematom büyüklüğünün 2cm’den büyük, en çok parietal bölgede olduğu ve bu vakaların 1’den fazla kustuğu tespit edilmiştir.

Sonuç
Skalp hematomunun 2 santimetreden büyük olması, hematom yerinin parietal bölgede olması, anamnezinde bilinç bulanıklığı, nöbet, senkop ve 1’den çok kusma tarifleyen hastalarda daha ciddi klinik sonuçlar görülmüştür.

Retrospective Evaluation of Children Presenting to the Emergency Department with Minor Head Trauma

Öz

Aim
According to the anamnesis and examination findings in children presenting to the emergency department with minor head trauma, we aimed to determine which ones had more severe tomography images and the necessity of brain tomography.

Material and Methods
Our study was performed retrospectively with 835 patients who applied to Sivas State (Numune) Hospital emergency department with minor head trauma between 01.01.2013 and 31.12.2015. Age, gender, vital signs, location and shape of head trauma, neurological and mental status, presence of vomiting, radiological findings and surgical intervention were evaluated in the first 24 hours.

Results
In 41 (4.9%) patients, hematoma size was greater than 2 centimeters (cm) and in 65 (7.8%) hematoma location was parietal region. Anamnesis has been identified more severe clinical conditions in patients with syncope, seizures and confusion. Surgical intervention was performed in 12 (1.4%) patients. It was determined that the hematoma size of the patients undergoing surgical intervention was greater than 2 cm, mostly in the parietal region and these cases vomited more than one.

Conclusion
More serious clinical results were seen in patients with scalp hematoma greater than 2 centimeters, location of the hematoma in the parietal region, blurred consciousness, seizure, syncope and vomiting more than one.
