injury surveillance system - Opis:
- Injuries are a major cause of death around the globe. According to statistics, around 5 million people die each year world wide remaining another few millions disabled due to injuries. The world health organizations reveals that more than 90% of the injury related deaths are from low and middle income countries. But the worrying factor is that the most of the injury related deaths in these countries could have been prevented with a concerted effort. Most of the developed countries use injury surveillance systems to monitor injury cases and take preventive measures. However, low and middle income countries can not afford for such systems because of the lack of funds and basic infrastructure, like Internet. This paper proposes an effective injury surveillance system for those countries which can be functioned with minimum resources and minimum cost.
