摘要

工作相关的创伤性脑损伤是一种常见的慢性发病率、死亡率和高治疗费用的原因。其原因在很大程度上取决于环境，并受到COVID-19大流行封锁的影响。目的:了解新冠肺炎大流行期间工作人群创伤性脑损伤(TBI)流行病学特征并评价其变化。方法:对2019冠状病毒病大流行之前和期间在某三级工作医院住院的TBI患者进行为期2年的回顾性流行病学分析。结果:大流行前，TBI患者以男性为主，呈双峰年龄分布。交通事故是导致与工作有关的创伤性脑损伤的主要原因。在2019冠状病毒病大流行封锁期间，街道交通与TBI发生率呈正相关，表明机动车交通事故增加是TBI的一个原因。结论:这些结果与TBI预防资源的规划和集中有关。

Epidemiology of Work-Related Traumatic Brain Injury and COVID-19 Pandemic Lockdown Consequences: Experience in a Reference Center in Chile.

Introduction: Work-related traumatic brain injury is a frequent cause of chronic morbidity, mortality, and high treatment costs. Its causes are highly environmentally determined and were affected by COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns.

Objective: We aimed to describe traumatic brain injury (TBI) epidemiology in working population and evaluate its modifications during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Methods: We performed a 2-year retrospective epidemiological analysis of TBI patients hospitalized in a tertiary work-related hospital before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Results: In the prepandemic period, TBI patients were predominantly men, with a bimodal age distribution. Crash accidents were the leading work-related traumatic brain injury cause. During COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns, there was a positive correlation between street traffic and TBI rate, presenting increased motor crash accidents as a cause of TBI.

Conclusions: These results are relevant for planning and focalization of resources for TBI prevention.
