The purpose of this paper was to study the frequency of alcohol abuse among injured patients between 15 and 64 years of age. This prospective study was made during a 6-week period in the autumn of 1983. The sample consisted of 166 patients (6.8 per cent of the total number of injured patients during the period of study). The patients were interviewed and one part of the questionnaire took the form of four CAGE questions. Among these 166 patients, 31.3 per cent were CAGE positive. Of these alcohol abusers, four-fifths were male and one-fifth female. CAGE-positive patients had elevated S-GGT and S-ASAT in 44 per cent of cases and elevated S-ALAT in 24 per cent. The large number of heavy drinkers found are an important target of alcohol education.
本文的目的是研究15至64岁受伤患者中酒精滥用的发生率。这项前瞻性研究于1983年秋季进行，为期6周。样本包括166名患者（占研究期间受伤患者总数的6.8%）。对患者进行了访谈，问卷的一部分采用了四个CAGE问题的形式。在这166名患者中，31.3%的CAGE测试呈阳性。在这些酒精滥用者中，五分之四为男性，五分之一为女性。44%的CAGE阳性患者S-GGT和S-ASAT升高，24%的患者S-ALAT升高。发现的大量酗酒者是酒精教育的重要目标人群。
