本横断面研究随机抽取412名急诊科（艾德）患者，检验以下假设：1）损伤与问题饮酒和近期饮酒呈正相关; 2）冲动和感觉寻求与损伤呈正相关，而风险感知与损伤呈负相关。结果显示，近期饮酒与受伤几率增加2倍相关[OR和95%; CI=2.34（1.07-5.10）]，而问题饮酒和个性因素与受伤无关。其他重要的预测因素是性别和年龄。研究结果表明，需要酒精筛查的病人谁检查自己到艾德由于受伤。
This cross-sectional study used a random sample of 412 Emergency Department (ED) patients to test the following hypothesizes: 1) injury would be positively associated with problem drinking and recent drinking; 2) impulsivity and sensation seeking would be positively associated with injury, while risk perception would be negatively associated with injury. Results show recent drinking is associated with 2-fold increase in the odds of injury [OR and 95%; CI=2.34 (1.07-5.10)] while problem drinking and personality factors were unrelated to injury. Other significant predictors were gender and age. Findings suggest a need for alcohol screening for patients who check themselves into the ED due to injury.
