Abstract

Report. The authors studied the medical and social characteristics of victims with facial bone injuries based on archived data over a long period of time. It was found that the majority of patients were socially active, but not working men of young working age with secondary, higher or incomplete higher education. Most of them were permanent residents of rural areas. The most frequent injuries WERE domestic and seasonal (spring autumn), which was due to an increase in the frequency of street injuries, as well as injuries sustained by rural residents during seasonal agricultural work, as well as an increase in the frequency of road accidents.Analysis of the system of specialized medical care showed that most of the victims were hospitalized, bypassing the stage of clinical diagnosis and treatment, independently in the form of self-treatment.A high frequency of delayed treatment and hospitalization of victims in medical institutions was found, which was associated with the remoteness of the place of permanent residence, material problems, inadequate outpatient treatment at the place of residence , as well as diagnostic errors at the pre-hospital stage.
