Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates whether rural patients who tested positive for methamphetamine had longer hospital stays than urban patients after orthopedic trauma, utilizing data from patients treated at a Level I trauma center between 2013 and 2023.
- - It involved categorizing patients based on their residence (urban, suburban, rural) and examining various factors like demographics, injury details, and hospital stay duration through medical records.
- - Results showed that methamphetamine-positive patients, especially those from rural areas, tended to be younger and more likely to face complications and surgery, with urban patients having shorter hospital stays regardless of their drug use status.
