对旧金山总医院急诊室的入院情况进行了一项研究,以分析饮酒模式和问题与受伤状况之间的关系。在60天的时间内,对入院急诊室的患者进行了20%概率的访谈。75%的受访者完成了访谈(N= 1896)。其中,29% (N= 555)因受伤被送进急诊室,饮酒者比不饮酒者更有可能因受伤入院。在伤害类型和原因以及之前的酒精相关事故中,发现了通常饮酒的数量和频率以及醉酒的频率的差异。在饮酒的社会后果或与酒精依赖和失去对饮酒的控制有关的经历方面,受伤者和未受伤者之间的差异不大。与一般人群相比,该人群中受伤和未受伤的人报告的频繁重度饮酒和酒精相关问题的发生率都要高得多,这可能掩盖了饮酒模式和受伤状况问题之间的额外关联。
A study of emergency room admissions at San Francisco General Hospital was undertaken to analyze the association of drinking patterns and problems with injury status. A 20% probability sample of patients admitted to the emergency room around‐the‐clock over a 60‐day period was interviewed. Interviews were completed on 75% of those sampled (N= 1896). Of these, 29% (N= 555) were admitted to the emergency room for injuries, with drinkers more likely than abstainers to be admitted for injuries. Differences were found in the quantity and frequency of usual drinking and frequency of drunkenness for type and cause of injury and for prior alcohol‐related accidents. Little difference was found between the injured and noninjured on social consequences of drinking or experiences associated with alcohol dependence and loss of control over drinking. Both injured and noninjured in this population reported much higher rates of frequent heavy drinking and alcohol‐related problems than that found in the general population which may have masked additional associations of drinking patterns and problems with injury status.
