This cohort study assessed all reported injuries experienced by the personnel of a U.S. Navy aircraft carrier during two consecutive 6-month deployments. These nondisease injury cases were collected by the ship's Safety Department from ship's Medical Department reports and showed 291 total injuries (3.05 injuries per 10,000 person-days) and 412 total injuries (4.39 injuries per 10,000 person-days) among 5,101 personnel during two cruises, slightly higher than the recordable mishap rate for general U.S. industry (which uses a different metric). Junior personnel experienced one-half of the mishaps but represented only 31% of the manpower. Slips, trips, and falls were the most common causes of accidents on the ship, similar to general industry. The incidence densities and causes reported should be similar to and representative of those for other large deck ships in the U.S. Navy and can be used in developing risk-reduction strategies for targeted populations, to meet the Secretary of Defense requirement to reduce injuries by 50% in the next 2 years.
这项队列研究评估了美国一艘航空母舰上的人员在连续两次为期6个月的部署期间所报告的所有受伤情况。这些非疾病伤害病例由舰艇安全部门从舰艇医疗部门的报告中收集,结果显示,在两次巡航期间,5101名人员中共有291起受伤事件(每10000人日3.05起伤害)以及412起受伤事件(每10000人日4.39起伤害),略高于美国一般行业的可记录事故率(采用不同的衡量标准)。初级人员遭遇了一半的事故,但仅占人力的31%。滑倒、绊倒和摔倒在船上是最常见的事故原因,这与一般行业情况类似。所报告的发病率密度和原因应与美国海军其他大型甲板舰艇的情况相似且具有代表性,可用于为目标人群制定降低风险策略,以满足国防部长在未来两年内将受伤率降低50%的要求。
