Data from analysis of bicycle injuries in a defined, semirural Finnish population were compared with the national hospital discharge register and official police statistics and were related to national data on prevalence of bicycling. The results suggested an incidence of 7.3 injured persons/1000 population, which was 20-fold the figure derived from the police statistics. Inclusion of injuries treated at health centres doubled the number requiring medical attention. Bicycle injuries accounted for 52% of all traffic injuries. A motor vehicle was involved in 11% of bicycle injuries. In these accidents 18% of the victims were hospitalized, but only 6% in other bicycle accidents. Police and hospital records overestimated the proportion of motor vehicle crashes, involvement of elderly persons and incidence of head injuries and fractures. Non-motor vehicle bicycle accidents accounted for most of bicycle injuries, for 58% of in-patients and 93% of out-patients. Information from all levels of health care is required for injury control.
对芬兰某特定半农村人口中的自行车伤害情况进行分析所得数据，与国家医院出院登记册及警方官方统计数据进行了比较，并与全国自行车骑行普及率数据相关联。结果显示，受伤发生率为7.3人/1000人口，这是警方统计数据得出数字的20倍。将在健康中心接受治疗的伤害情况纳入统计后，需要医疗救治的人数增加了一倍。自行车伤害占所有交通伤害的52%。11%的自行车伤害事故涉及机动车。在这些事故中，18%的受害者住院治疗，但在其他自行车事故中这一比例仅为6%。警方和医院记录高估了机动车碰撞事故的比例、老年人的卷入情况以及头部受伤和骨折的发生率。非机动车自行车事故占自行车伤害的大多数，占住院患者的58%和门诊患者的93%。伤害控制需要各级医疗保健机构提供的信息。
