Abstract

Purpose: to investigate and analyze the resources and key performance indicators of the inpatient sector of traumatological service of the health care system in Transcarpathian region.

Materials and Methods. During the study statistical and structural-logical analysis methods were used. The sectoral statistical reporting in Transcarpathian region for 2014–2018 constituted the basis for the study.

Results.  In 2018, 112.25 positions of orthopedic traumatologists were introduced in the region, of which 16.0 were positions of pediatric orthopedic traumatologists. Out of the total number of positions in outpatient departments, 37 positions of orthopedic traumatologists were introduced, including 9.0 positions of pediatric orthopedic traumatologists, which is 32.9 % and 56.3 % of their total number, respectively. The staffing level of orthopedic traumatologists in 2018 was 93.1 %, including in outpatient departments – 89.9 %. There is a tendency to increase the number of hospital beds in the region, the number of which in 2018 was 399 traumatological and 32 orthopedic beds, which amounted to 3.18 and 0.25 per 10 thousand population, respectively. The reduction of the average occupancy of specialized hospital beds was established. The occupancy of traumatological beds decreased by 1.55 days and amounted to 320.75 days per year, and the occupancy of orthopedic beds decreased by 10.8 days per year and amounted to 302.06 days per year. During the study period, the average duration of treatment of patients in the hospital tended to increase, which in 2018 were 11.63 and 9.66 days, respectively. For the entire study period, mortality did not exceed 1 %.
