RESUMO

Objective@#Patients presenting with fingertip skin defect injuries without exposed bone can avail of two treatment options at the emergency department (ED). This study compared outcomes between dressing and composite graft (CG) using skin stump for patients visiting the ED with fingertip skin defect injuries without exposed bone. @*Methods@#This was a single-center, retrospective, observational study. We reviewed 244 patients with fingertip skin defect injuries without exposed bone who visited the ED from September 2018 to February 2021. We compared the outcomes of the patients who were treated by CG using skin stump and those who received a dressing in the ED. @*Results@#In all, 142 patients were treated by CG using skin stump, and 102 patients were given a dressing only. In the CG group, good outcomes were obtained in 140 patients, whereas additional skin graft treatment was required for two patients with bad outcomes. In the dressing group, 81 patients had good outcomes and 21 patients had bad outcomes which required additional skin graft treatment. @*Conclusion@#Results of our study revealed that compared to traditional dressing, ED treatment for fingertip skin defects without exposed bone showed good outcomes when administered CG using skin stump. Hence, we recommend that instead of simple dressing, CG using skin stump is the preferred mode of treatment for patients presenting in the ED with fingertip skin defect injuries without exposed bone.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: A kids café is a popular indoor playground in Korea that combines a playground for young children and a café for their caregivers. There have been no national reports about kids café-related injuries in Korea. This study investigated kids café-related injuries in Korea registered in a multicenter injury surveillance database and analyzed the risk factors for significant kids café-related injuries.METHODS: A multicenter cross-sectional study was performed using the Emergency Department-based Injury In-depth Surveillance registry in Korea between 2011 and 2016. Significant injury was defined as an injury requiring hospitalization or surgery. A multivariable logistic regression model was used to obtain the adjusted odds ratios (aORs) for factors associated with significant kids café-related injuries.RESULTS: Among 1,537,617 injured patients, we extracted 891 patients who were injured in kids cafés. Of these, 46 (5.2%) were admitted, and 39 (4.4%) underwent surgery. The most common injured anatomical site, injury type, and mechanism were lower extremity (28.2%), superficial injury (27.2%), and slip (27.1%), respectively. Among injury-inducing factors, significant injuries were most commonly caused by a trampoline (28.1%), and rock climbing equipment was the only risk factor in a kids café that led to significant injury after adjusting for age, sex, injury mechanism, and injured anatomical sites (aOR, 14.94; 95% confidence interval, 1.51–147.72).CONCLUSION: The rock climbing equipment in a kids café can cause serious injury to children. Establishing safety regulations for rock climbing equipment in kids cafés may have the greatest impact in reducing significant injuries requiring hospitalization or surgery.
