Background: Childbirth is a normal life event that is considered to have the most severe pain faced by women in their lifetime. However, this pain can be managed in many ways such as using epidural analgesia (EDA).
Road accidents have been considered to be one of the primary causes of mortality and lifelong disability in the early decades of life in different countries, and road traffic injuries (RTI) have been identified as the ninth most common cause of disability adjusted life years (DALYs) lost for all age and gender categories. Multi-Detector Computerized Tomography( MDCT) scanners are widely used because they rapidly produce high-resolution scans of large areas, offering short examination times for multiple body regions under emergency conditions. A retrospective descriptive quantitative hospital based study conducted in 2522 patients their ages ranged (1-80) , aimed to assess RTA trauma in Saudi Population in Najran province (KSA) in King Khalid Hospital, using CT scan . Statistical analysis of the data was performed using the Microsoft Excel. The study found that there were 2295 males (91%) 227 females (9%), were effected by RTA , age group (21-30 years) which signified 1011(40.1%.), were frequently affected, spine and head were more affected and reported (980) (38.9%) , (692) (27.4%) respectively .The conclusion of the study achieved that CT imaging plays a major role in diagnostic workflow in the evaluation of patients with trauma those usually have simultaneous injuries to several anatomic regions or organs, it can decrease the serious time and increase survival.
Background: Road traffic accidents are extremely common in low-and middle-income countries. Speculations show a correlation between male gender and traumatic injury, due to more rates of risky behaviors such as speeding and not adhering to safety guidelines. Objective: In this review, we aimed to evaluate the different types of injuries associated with Road Traffic Accident, and highlight the general management approach. Methods: We searched the literature on Mesh terms: (traffic accident), (injury), (fractures). Only articles relevant to traffic associated injury were included. Conclusion: RTA related injuries are important emergency conditions that necessitate traumatic survey and surgical intervention in many cases. Adhering to road rules and safety guidelines may help in reducing the number of fatalities and disabilities resulting from an otherwise preventable cause.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
