目的：本文描述了一个名为国家暴力死亡报告系统（NVDRS）的新监测系统，该系统由美国疾病控制与预防中心发起。NVDRS的使命是收集所有暴力死亡的详细、及时的信息。设计：NVDRS是一个基于人口的主动监测系统，旨在获得所有居民和发生的暴力死亡的完整普查。每个州都从死亡证明、法医/验尸官档案、执法记录和犯罪实验室收集自己的死亡信息。在同一事件中发生的死亡是有关联的。每个事件可以收集超过270个数据元素。设置：阿拉斯加州，科罗拉多州，格鲁吉亚州，马里兰州，马萨诸塞州，新泽西州，北卡罗来纳州，俄克拉荷马州，俄勒冈州，罗得岛，南卡罗来纳州，弗吉尼亚州和威斯康星州的13个州卫生部门。主题：案件包括自杀，他杀，未确定的意图，法律的干预和无意的火器伤害的暴力死亡。信息收集嫌疑人以及受害者。干预措施：无。结果措施：监测的质量将衡量其可接受性，准确性，灵敏度，及时性，实用性和成本。结果：该系统刚刚启动。结论：NVDRS已经获得了足够的支持，可以在选定的州开始数据收集工作。这一系统需要克服如此大规模的数据收集工作所面临的重大障碍。其成功与否取决于如何利用其数据为预防暴力工作提供信息和进行评估。如果成功，它将在使用经验信息指导美国围绕暴力的公共政策方面开辟新的篇章。
Objectives: This paper describes a new surveillance system called the National Violent Death Reporting System (NVDRS), initiated by the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. NVDRS's mission is the collection of detailed, timely information on all violent deaths.Design: NVDRS is a population based, active surveillance system designed to obtain a complete census of all resident and occurrent violent deaths. Each state collects information on its own deaths from death certificates, medical examiner/coroner files, law enforcement records, and crime laboratories. Deaths occurring in the same incident are linked. Over 270 data elements can be collected on each incident.Setting: The 13 state health departments of Alaska, Colorado, Georgia, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Virginia, and Wisconsin.,Subjects: Cases consist of violent deaths from suicide, homicide, undetermined intent, legal intervention, and unintentional firearm injury. Information is collected on suspects as well as victims.Interventions: None.Outcome measures: The quality of surveillance will be measured in terms of its acceptability, accuracy, sensitivity, timeliness, utility, and cost.Results: The system has just been started. There are no results as yet.Conclusions: NVDRS has achieved enough support to begin data collection efforts in selected states. This system will need to overcome the significant barriers to such a large data collection effort. Its success depends on the use of its data to inform and assess violence prevention efforts. If successful, it will open a new chapter in the use of empirical information to guide public policy around violence in the United States.
