초록

Objectives : This study was conducted to estimate the
cumulative incidence rate (CIR) of unintentional injuries in
Korean daily life and to describe the pattern of unintentional
injuries.
Methods : The study population was the people who used
the National Health Insurance because of injuries (ICD
code: S00~T98) during 2006. The stratified sample
according to gender, age and the severity of injury (NISS,
New Injury Severity Score) was randomly selected. The
questions on the questionnaire were developed as a
reference for an international classification tool (ICECI,
International Classification of External Causes of Injury).
The questions included the locations of injury, the
mechanisms of injury and the results of injury. Moreover,
we used age, gender, region and income variables for
analysis.
Results : The CIR of unintentional injuries that occurred
in daily life for 1 year per 100,000 persons was 17,606, and
the CIR of severe injuries was 286. Many injuries were
occurred at home (29.6%), public places (19.0%), school
(13.7%) and near home (12.0%). The major mechanisms of
injuries were slipping (48.8%), contact (14.0%), physical
over-exertion (13.8%), and fall (6.6%). Infants and old aged
people were vulnerable to injuries, and those who lived
rural area and who were in a low income level were
vulnerable too.
Conclusions : We signified the risk groups and risk
settings of unintentional injuries in Korean daily life. These
results could contribute to establishing strategies for injury
prevention and implementing these strategies.
