About this study

Official title: Epidemiological Study of Pediatric Pelvic Injuries

A retrospective epidemiological study of pediatric pelvic injury from level 1 trauma centre.

Hypothesis: In the pediatric population, majority of pelvic injuries is of type A according to AO/OTA (Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen/Orthopaedic Trauma Association) classification, the treatment is mostly conservative and complications of injury and treatment are less common than in adults.

Read the detailed description

Study design: Retrospective analysis (13 years), excluding pathological fractures. AO/OTA type, epidemiological data, mode of treatment, and complications were recorded. Data were analyzed using the Fisher exact test and the Wilcoxon test.

Being tested
surgical treatment according to standard indication criteria, conservative treatment according to standard indication criteria

What participants receive

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Epidemiological study of pediatric pelvic trauma

    1. The overall incidence of pelvic ring injury per 100,000 children per year.
    2. The overall incidence of isolated acetabular fractures per 100,000 children per year.
    3. The overall incidence of combined pelvic ring and acetabular injuries per 100,000 children per year.

    Measured: Follow-up of each patient for minimum 12 months.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Demographical study of pediatric pelvic trauma

    1. Comparison of the incidence of observed injuries by sex.
    2. Comparison of the incidence of observed injuries according to the severity of trauma (single trauma vs. multiple trauma).
    3. The incidence of the types of pelvic ring injury (according to AO/OTA classification) per 100,000 children per year.

    Measured: Follow-up of each patient for longer then 12 months.
