Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To determine the importance of the duration of in-hospital management of patients with testicular torsion for testes survival. The time from onset of symptoms until surgery is a well-known factor determining testicular survival but there is no data regarding the contribution of in-hospital management duration to testicular survival. Unlike the time from onset of symptoms until seeking medical attention, the time from registration to the emergency department (ED) to the time of detorsion-"Door To Detorsion time" (DTD) is dependent on medical providers and should be minimized. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Data was retrieved on all patients who underwent surgery for testicular torsion in 1994-2014 (N = 219). We used multivariable logistic regression analysis to examine independent association between DTD time or duration of symptoms to testicular survival. RESULTS:Median DTD time was 135 minutes (range 23-546). Among patients with a viable testis, median DTD time was 107 minutes (range 35-381) compared to 160 minutes (range 23-546) among patients with a nonviable testis (P <.001). Logistic regression models showed that both DTD time (P = .04) and duration of symptoms (P <.001) are independent factors associated with testicular survival. Adjusted odds ratio was 1.0048 for a nonviable testis for every minute of delayed management in the ED (P = .04). Results suggest that every 10 minutes of delay in the ED increases the chance of having a nonviable testis in exploration by 4.8%. CONCLUSION:DTD is an independent factor predicting testicular survival. Institutional efforts should be made to decrease duration of DTD. DTD should be considered as a measure for quality of care.
