Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the correlation between blood alcohol levels and the severity of injuries assessed by the Injury Severity Score (ISS) in patients who were victims of traffic accidents admitted to the Hospital das Clínicas of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of São Paulo (HCFMUSP).

Methods: Cross-sectional study carried out between July 2018 and June 2019, at the Central Emergency Room of the Hospital das Clínicas of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of São Paulo (PSC-HCFMUSP). A total of 172 hospitalized patients victims of traffic accidents were included in this study. Blood samples were analyzed by the FMUSP Toxicology Laboratory.

Results: 36 patients (20.9%) had positive BAC (≥ 0.2 g/L) with a mean of 1.21 g/L. Overall, patients had a mean age of 37.2 years old, and 136 (79.1%) were men. The ISS of the total casuistry was 15.6; regarding the external cause, the motorcycle was ranked first with 100 cases (58.1%), and drivers were the majority with 57.4% of the sample.

Conclusion: There was no correlation between the severity of the injuries and the blood alcohol levels of traffic accident victims admitted to a reference hospital. Level of Evidence II, Cross-Sectional Study.

交通事故的严重程度与受害者血液中的酒精含量之间存在相关性。

目的评估圣保罗大学医学院附属医院（HCFMUSP）收治的交通事故患者血液中酒精含量与伤害严重程度评分（ISS）之间的相关性：2018年7月至2019年6月在圣保罗大学医学院附属医院（PSC-HCFMUSP）中心急诊室进行的横断面研究。本研究共纳入了172名住院的交通事故受害者。血液样本由圣保罗大学医学院毒理学实验室进行分析：36 名患者（20.9%）的 BAC 呈阳性（≥ 0.2 克/升），平均为 1.21 克/升。总体而言，患者的平均年龄为 37.2 岁，136 人（79.1%）为男性。总病例的 ISS 为 15.6；在外部原因方面，摩托车位居首位，有 100 例（58.1%），司机占多数，占样本的 57.4%：结论：在参考医院住院的交通事故受害者的受伤严重程度与血液酒精含量之间没有相关性。证据等级 II，横断面研究。
