Amaç: COVİD-19 pandemisi tüm dünyada sağlık, sosyal hayat ve ekonomiyi etkilemiştir. Çalışmamızda pandeminin ikinci dalgasında, sosyal izolasyon devam ederken çocukluk dönemi ev kazalarının sıklığının araştırılmıştır.

Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmamız tek merkezli ve retrospektif bir çalışmadır. 1 Kasım 2020-31 Ocak 2021 tarihleri arasında (pandeminin ikinci dalgası) ev kazası nedeniyle hastaneye başvuran 18 yaş altı hastalar değerlendirilmiştir. Sonuçlar bir önceki yılın aynı döneminde, ev kazası nedeniyle hastanemize başvuran hastalar ile karşılaştırıldı. Ev kazaları, çarpma-düşme-kesi, intoksikasyon-yabancı cisim alımı ve yanık olmak üzere 3 grupta incelendi. Hastalar 0-1 yaş, 2-5 yaş, 6-11 yaş ve 12-17 yaş olmak üzere dört yaş grubuna ayrıldı.

Bulgular: Çalışma Covid öncesi 607 olgu ve Covid-19 sonrası 683 olguyla tamamlandı. Ortanca yaş 2019-20 yıllarında 44.4 (17-57) ay, 2020-21 yıllarında 49.1 (18-64) aydı (p=0.154). Her iki dönemde de ayaktan hasta ve sekelsiz taburculuk daha sıktı (p=0.046). Pandeminin ikinci dalgasında pandemi öncesine göre yanık ve düşmelere bağlı başvurularda artış saptandı (p<0.001). Tüm kazalar 5 yaş ve altında daha sık görüldü.

Sonuç: Çalışmamızda pandemi öncesine göre pandeminin ikinci dalgasında; acil başvuru sayısında azalma gözlenirken, ev kazası nedeniyle başvuranlarda artış gözlendi.
