目的：拉丁美洲人不成比例的职业伤害率是有据可查的，但关于差距是否随着时间的推移而增加的信息有限。这项研究描述了在工作相关的创伤性损伤的负担持续拉丁美洲人在华盛顿State.Methods：华盛顿国家创伤登记处的数据，从1998年至2008年被用来模拟每年的变化的几率，工作相关的创伤性损伤是由拉丁美洲人持续的，控制人口统计学，伤害相关的因素，和拉丁美洲人的代表性的基本laborel.Results：我们发现了一个5%的平均每年增加的几率，一个可比的工作相关的创伤性损伤是由拉丁美洲人（P= 0.007）。福尔斯在工业/矿山/采石场的位置是最强的贡献者增加dispartial.Conclusions：拉丁美洲人承担越来越不成比例的职业伤害的负担，不太可能有健康保险，除了工人的赔偿。
Objective:Disproportionate occupational injury rates for Latinos are well documented, but there is limited information about whether disparity is increasing over time. This study describes trends in the burden of work-related traumatic injuries sustained by Latinos in Washington State.Methods:Washington State Trauma Registry data from 1998 to 2008 were used to model annual change in the odds that a work-related traumatic injury was sustained by a Latino, controlling for demographics, injury-related factors, and Latino representation in the underlying labor force.Results:We found a 5% mean annual increase in the odds that a comparable work-related traumatic injury was sustained by a Latino (P= 0.007). Falls in industrial/mine/quarry locations were the strongest contributor to increasing disparity.Conclusions:Latinos bear an increasingly disproportionate burden of occupational injuries and are less likely to have health insurance coverage aside from workers' compensation.
