To assess the burden of road traffic injuries in Pakistan-a developing country in South Asia.
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.
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 males, those 16-45 years old, and those in the professional category of laborers and vendors.
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.
评估南亚发展中国家巴基斯坦道路交通伤害的负担。
开展一项具有全国代表性的家庭访谈调查，采用三个月回顾期来衡量所有年龄段和性别的各类伤害负担。
伤害事件的总体发生率为每年每1000人中有41起（置信区间：39.2 - 43.8），道路交通伤害为每年每1000人中有15起（置信区间：13.7 - 16.5）。研究发现，男性、16 - 45岁人群以及劳工和小贩职业类别的人群道路交通伤害的相对风险更高。
这项首次全国性调查反映出伤害，尤其是道路交通伤害在巴基斯坦的影响日益增大，对国家卫生系统构成挑战。
