Epidemiological and Statistical Study of Facial Traumatic Fractures at Assiut University Trauma Hospital
Epidemiological and Statistical Study of Facial Traumatic Fractures Among Patients Presenting to the Trauma Hospital of Assiut University Hospitals During the Period From Jan 2025 to Dec 2028
Facial traumatic fractures represent a significant global and regional health burden that can impair essential functions such as breathing, speaking, and chewing, while carrying substantial functional and psychological consequences. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the epidemiological characteristics, causes, anatomical patterns, and clinical outcomes of facial traumatic fractures among patients presenting to the Trauma Hospital of Assiut University Hospitals between January 2025 and December 2028.
In this observational study, researchers will systematically extract and review data from emergency admission records, hospital registries, and radiological archives. The collected data will include participant demographics (such as age, sex, residence, and occupation), the primary mechanism of trauma (such as road traffic accidents, falls, and assaults), the use of protective gear (such as seatbelts and helmets), and time intervals before hospital presentation. Imaging studies, including computed tomography (CT) and plain radiographs, will be analyzed to record the specific fracture sites, laterality, and injury complexity.
The study will also document concomitant injuries across other body systems, the treatment modalities administered (conservative management versus surgical fixation), post-treatment complications, and length of hospital stay. The findings will help characterize current trauma trends in Upper Egypt to inform injury prevention strategies and assist in hospital resource allocation for maxillofacial trauma care.

Patients with Facial Traumatic Fractures
Patients of all ages and both sexes presenting to the Trauma Hospital of Assiut University Hospitals with radiologically confirmed facial traumatic fractures (including frontal, nasal, naso-orbito-ethmoid, orbital, zygomatic, maxillary, and mandibular bones) between January 2025 and December 2028.
Participants receive standard-of-care trauma management, categorized as conservative (non-operative) therapy or surgical intervention (closed reduction, maxillomandibular fixation [MMF], or open reduction and internal fixation [ORIF]), with data evaluated for epidemiological characteristics, fracture patterns, etiology, associated injuries, and clinical outcomes.

Percentage of patients with facial traumatic fractures caused by road traffic accidents
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline
|
The proportion of patients presenting with radiologically confirmed facial fractures whose primary mechanism of injury is a road traffic accident (RTA; including drivers, passengers, motorcyclists, and pedestrians).
Data are systematically collected from emergency admission records, trauma registries, and patient files using a standardized data extraction sheet.
