Recently injury has become a major world-wide health problem. But studies in Korea about injuries were very few. Thus, this study was conducted to analyze the trend of major injuries from 1991 to 2006 and to provide basic data for preventing injuries.
This study was based on the National Statistical Office data from 1991 to 2006 and calculated to estimate the burden of major injuries by using the standard expected years of life lost (SEYLL) and total lost earnings equation.
For transport accidents, mortality, SEYLL and total lost earnings were increased from 1991 to 1996 and decreased from 2000 to 2006. On the other hand, for suicides, these were increased gradually. Since 2003, falls were included in ten leading causes of death. This study showed that injury causes major social and economical losses.
We could reduce injury related premature death through active interest in injury prevention program.
近年来，伤害已成为一个全球性的主要健康问题。但韩国关于伤害的研究非常少。因此，本研究旨在分析1991年至2006年主要伤害的趋势，并为预防伤害提供基础数据。
本研究基于韩国国家统计局1991年至2006年的数据，通过使用标准预期寿命损失年数（SEYLL）和总收益损失方程来计算估计主要伤害的负担。
对于交通事故，死亡率、SEYLL和总收益损失在1991年至1996年期间有所增加，在2000年至2006年期间有所下降。另一方面，对于自杀，这些指标则逐渐上升。自2003年以来，跌倒被列入十大主要死因。本研究表明，伤害会造成重大的社会和经济损失。
我们可以通过积极关注伤害预防计划来减少与伤害相关的过早死亡。
