“…However, the epidemiological information and studies of traumatic fractures in Indonesia are still rare. The current available studies were single-center studies that may limit the generalizability of their results [17], [18], [19], [20]. Moreover, there were still no data found during the COVID-19 pandemic emergency period in DIY.…”

BACKGROUND: The changes of lifestyle and mobility during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic may influence the epidemiology of traumatic fractures. AIM: This study aimed to investigate the epidemiology of traumatic fractures in Yogyakarta Special Region (Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta [DIY]) during the COVID-19 emergency response period and compare the data with the similar period in the previous year. METHODS: This was a retrospective study involving five secondary referral hospitals and one tertiary referral hospital. We included all patients who presented to the emergency departments or orthopedic clinics who were then diagnosed with new-onset fractures. We compared the data during the emergency response period (COVID group) with a similar period in 2019 (control group). RESULTS: There were 1249 patients with 1428 fractures included in this study. There was 47.68% reduction of patients during the emergency response period. There was no significant difference in proportion of gender and mean of age (control group vs. COVID group: 55.9% vs. 54.8%, p = 0.717 for male gender; 42.64 ± 24.03 years vs. 42.20 ± 23.34 years, p = 0.886 for mean of patients’ age). There were significant increases in the proportions of patients experiencing low-energy injuries (38.0% vs. 30.8%, p = 0.012), injuries occurring at home (34.0% vs. 23.8%, p = 0.001), and surgically treated closed fractures (51.8% vs. 45.3%, p = 0.038), along with decrease of patients’ referrals (1.6% vs. 4.1%, p = 0.018) during the pandemic. The difference in proportions of fracture type, osteoporotic fractures, and multiple trauma was not significant (control group vs. COVID group: 19.2% vs. 17.4%, p = 0.418 for open fracture; 15.4% vs. 14.7%, p = 0.750 for osteoporotic fracture; and 9.0% vs. 7.0%; p = 0.217 for multiple trauma). CONCLUSIONS: During the COVID-19 emergency response period in DIY, there were nearly half reduction of patients with fractures, increased proportion of patients injured at home, reduced proportion of patients referred to another hospital, and increased proportion of surgically treated closed fractures. The knowledge about this epidemiological trend may help in developing preventive programs and treatment policy for fractures and other injuries during the current pandemic.

Musculoskeletal injuries in children are a common cause of 25% of children hospitalization. Previous research stated that five pediatric fractures had significant long-term consequences such as disability and activity restriction. In Indonesia, epidemiology studies have discussed the incidence of fracture in general sites, but only a few reported lower limb fractures. The authors expect this research to be used for lower extremities fractures in children’s epidemiologic descriptions. Between January 2016 until September 2020, we included 247 children under 18 years old based on inclusion criteria. The prevalence and fractures were reviewed for detail, such as sex, age, mechanism of injury, location of the fracture, and treatment. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 26. Most common injuries occur at 13-18 years old with 164 children (66.4%). Most of them were caused by traffic accidents, 210 cases (85.0%). Consequently, femur fractures are the most common fractures due to traffic accidents 53.8% (p<0.005). From common fracture sites in this study, plating is the common to use procedure than the others (52.3%). Therefore, we can conclude that MVA were the most common injury in children, and especially for fracture femur relevant with increasing age and plating methods is common to use method for this fracture
