目的：评估南亚发展中国家巴基斯坦的道路交通伤害负担。方法：一项具有全国代表性的家庭访谈调查，使用三个月的召回期来衡量所有年龄段和性别的所有伤害的负担。结果：伤害事件总发生率为41/1000(CI：39.2~43.8)/1000/年，道路交通伤害总发生率为15/1000(CI：13.7~16.5)/1000/年。道路交通伤害的相对风险在配偶、16-45岁的人以及劳工和小贩这一专业类别的人中被发现更高。结论：这项第一次全国调查反映了伤害，特别是道路交通伤害在巴基斯坦日益增长的影响，并预示着对国家卫生系统的挑战。(C)2003年皇家公共卫生研究所。爱思唯尔出版有限公司版权所有。
Objectives: To assess the burden of road traffic injuries in Pakistan-a developing country in South Asia. Methods: A nationally representative household interview survey, to measure the burden of all injuries for all ages and in both genders using a three-month recall period. Results: The overall incidence of injury events was 41 (CI: 39.2-43.8) per 1000 per year and for road traffic injuries 15 (CI: 13.7-16.5) per 1000 per year. The relative risk for road traffic injuries was found to be higher in mates, those 16-45 years old, and those in the professional category of laborers and vendors. Conclusions: This first national survey reflects the growing impact of injuries, especially road traffic injuries in Pakistan and portends a challenge for the national health system.
