There is an overwhelmingly high incidence of severe injuries caused by motor vehicle crashes (MVCs) among Aboriginal Canadians as compared with the general population.
The authors obtained MVC data for a 3-year period, 2003-2005, from Saskatchewan Government Insurance (SGI) for collisions occurring on on-reserve roads (n = 1270) together with a randomly selected sample of MVCs from off-reserve roads (n = 1270) in Saskatchewan. They compared the collision characteristics using bivariate and multiple logistic regressions.
On-reserve MVCs were more likely to include multiple collisions and result in severe injuries than the off-reserve sample. A number of factors were significantly related to the increased risk of on-reserve collisions as compared with the reference group for each variable.
Factors from all 3 levels (human, environmental, and vehicle factors) are associated with on-reserve MVCs.
与普通人群相比,加拿大原住民因机动车事故(MVC)而导致重伤的发生率极高。
作者从萨斯喀彻温省政府保险(SGI)获取了 2003 年至 2005 年为期 3 年的保护区道路碰撞事故数据(n=1270),以及萨斯喀彻温省非保护区道路碰撞事故的随机样本(n=1270)。他们使用双变量和多逻辑回归比较了碰撞特征。
保护区内的 MVC 更有可能发生多次碰撞并导致重伤,而非保护区样本。与每个变量的参考组相比,许多因素与保护区碰撞的风险增加显著相关。
来自所有 3 个层面(人为因素、环境因素和车辆因素)的因素都与保护区内的 MVC 相关。
