RESUMEN

Objetivo. Analizar los factores sociodemográficos y de las lesiones causadas por accidentes de tránsito que influyen en el tiempo de hospitalización de las víctimas. Material y métodos. Muestra transversal de 17 932 eventos de tránsito ocurridos en España entre 2000 y 2007. Se estimaron diferentes modelos de regresión para identificar y medir la influencia de los factores. Resultados. Los hombres tienen un tiempo medio de hospitalización 41% mayor al de las mujeres. La duración de la estancia hospitalaria media aumenta cinco veces cuando existen fracturas. Las lesiones en las extremidades inferiores, la cabeza y el abdomen se asocian con mayores duraciones hospitalarias. Conclusiones. El sexo de la víctima, su edad, la posición que ocupaba en el vehículo en el momento del evento, el tipo de vehículo causante y el tipo y zona de la lesión influyen significativamente en la duración de la estancia hospitalaria.
