Highlights:
- Medical data registries play a crucial role in improving medical knowledge and enhancing patient care.
- Burn injuries, microtia, and orofacial clefts were identified as the most common occurrences among the patients
- The demographic patterns observed provide valuable insights into the patient population seeking plastic surgery services.
Abstract:
Introduction: Medical data registries are useful databases with well-defined data collection mechanisms. A well-designed and implemented registry can give surgeons a wealth of data for research and quality improvement efforts. The aim is describe the epidemiology of plastic surgery cases in a tertiary general hospital in Surabaya, Indonesia.
Methods: A retrospective assessment of patients' medical records from 2016 to 2019 at Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery Unit, Dr. Soetomo General Academic Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia was conducted. A variety of factors were recorded and evaluated, including the patients' age, gender, diagnosis, and year.
Results: We found that among 736 individuals' medical records during a four-year period, burn injuries (17.4%), microtia (11.7%), and orofacial clefts (11.5%) were the most prevalent occurrences. The majority of patients with burn injuries (31.3%), those with microtia (39.5%), those with cleft lip and palate (33%), and those with microtia (between the ages of 15 and 24) were all between the ages of 45 and 64. Patients who were men (52.6%) outnumbered those who were women (47.4%). This data indicates that there were more patients in 2019 than in previous years (397.%).
Conclusion: The analysis of plastic surgery cases revealed a steady increase in the number of cases each year. Burns accounted for the biggest percentage of patient requests for care (17.4%). The majority of patients were male, and 21.9% of them were between the ages of 15 and 24 who were seeking care most frequently.
