Description
Executive Summary
THE INJURY FIELD
Injury
morbidity and mortality have been persistent problems in the United
States. Recent findings report that in 1995 alone, injuries were
responsible for 147,891 deaths, 2.6 million hospitalizations, and over
36 million emergency room visits (Fingerhut and Warner, 1997). Societal
costs of injury-related morbidity and mortality were estimated at $260
billion in FY 1995.1
Unintentional injuries and violence account for about 30 percent of all
lost years of productive life before age 65, exceeding losses from
heart disease, cancer, and stroke combined (CDC, 1991; Waller, 1994).
Given the staggering costs of injury morbidity and mortality, the
Robert Wood Johnson, W.K. Kellogg, and John D. and Catherine T.
MacArthur foundations, requested that the Institute of Medicine (IOM)
establish a committee to make recommendations for advancing the injury
field and reducing the burden of injury in America. In this report, the
IOM Committee on Injury Prevention and Control characterizes the injury
problem in the United States, assesses the current response by the
public and private sectors, and presents recommendations for reducing
the burden of injury in America.2
