Abstract
With the objective of describing mortality from traffic accidents in Bayamo, Cuba, in 2011 a review was performed of injured and deceased patients due to traffic accidents, recorded in the Hospital Carlos M. de Céspedes. Of the 1,365 injured patients treated in the emergency room, the predominant groups were individuals aged 25 to 44 years comprising 372 patients (27.3%) and men comprising 1,071 (78.5%). 46 people died, most from the same age group and male. Multiple traumatisms (52.6%) and craniofacial trauma (34.2%) were the predominant injuries. Motor vehicle-pedestrian accidents stood out with a mortality of 26.3%. In conclusion, mortality from traffic accidents predominately occurs in young male adults, whose fatal consequences are due to multiple traumatisms from road accidents.
为了描述古巴巴亚莫交通事故造成的死亡率，2011年对Carlos M. de csamesides医院记录的因交通事故受伤和死亡的病人进行了审查。在急诊室治疗的1365名受伤患者中，主要人群是25至44岁的个体，包括372名患者(27.3%)和1,071名男性(78.5%)。46人死亡，大多数来自同一年龄组和男性。多发伤(52.6%)和颅面伤(34.2%)是主要的损伤。机动车-行人交通事故死亡率最高，为26.3%。总之，交通事故造成的死亡主要发生在年轻的成年男性中，他们的致命后果是由于道路事故造成的多重创伤。
