Popis: Study Design Retrospective study of data abstracted from the Diagnosis Procedure Combination (DPC) database. Purpose This study aimed to investigate the effects of surgery in the early phase. Overview of Literature The optimal timing of surgery for cervical fracture dislocation (CFD) remains unclear because only a few clinical studies with approximately 100 patients have been published. Methods This study included 4,653 adult patients with a definitive diagnosis of CFD from the DPC database. The database contains nationwide inpatient data collected from >1,000 acute care hospitals in Japan. The DPC database contains information regarding hospitalization, such as diagnosis, treatment, medical history, complications, and hospitalization outcomes. This study identified 460 pairs of patients after one-to-one propensity-score matching (PSM). Treatment outcomes were compared between patients who underwent surgery for CFD within 72 hours (early group) and later (delayed group) after admission. The main outcomes included 30-day mortality, in-hospital death, and major complications. The secondary outcomes were improvement in the Barthel index, length of hospital stay, and discharged home rate. Results After adjusting for PSM, the early group had a significantly higher 30-day mortality rates than the delayed group (3.0% vs. 0.4%, p=0.006). In the multivariate logistic regression analysis after PSM, the early group was associated with an increased risk of 30-day mortality (odds ratio, 8.05; 95% confidence interval, 2.15–5.26; p=0.007). Conclusions This study indicated that early surgery for CFD resulted in increased 30-day mortality.
