Overview

Ecological study highlights significant trends in vascular trauma hospitalizations in Brazil, indicating regional and demographic differences.

Key Points

  • Hospitalizations for vascular trauma peaked in 2012, with a declining trend observed until 2024.
  • Men comprised 76.6% of hospital admissions for vascular trauma, but mortality risk was notably higher in women.
  • Upper limbs had the highest incidence of vascular injuries, while abdominal traumas had the greatest lethality (22.1%).
  • Emergency procedures accounted for 88.4% of vascular trauma surgeries, which also corresponded to the highest mortality rate noted (6.3%).
