The development of injury surveillance systems in Australia is described from a public health perspective at the national level. Injury surveillance systems have undergone significant changes in recent years and further developments are planned. Three phases or generations are distinguished, each with distinctive features, advantages, and disadvantages. The first generation system was based on by-product data from routine mortality and morbidity statistics. The second generation system was specifically designed for injury surveillance, mainly using data collected for this purpose in hospital accident and emergency departments. A third generation of public health surveillance systems for injury control is now being developed for Australia. In developing a third generation system, a middle course is being charted. The number of data items and the complexity of classification for routine surveillance are mid-way between those of the first and second generation systems.
从国家层面的公共卫生角度描述了澳大利亚伤害监测系统的发展情况。近年来，伤害监测系统发生了重大变化，并且还计划进一步发展。该系统分为三个阶段或代际，每个阶段都有独特的特点、优点和缺点。第一代系统基于常规死亡率和发病率统计的副产品数据。第二代系统是专门为伤害监测设计的，主要使用在医院急诊科为此目的收集的数据。澳大利亚目前正在开发第三代伤害控制公共卫生监测系统。在开发第三代系统时，正在走一条中间路线。常规监测的数据项数量和分类复杂性介于第一代和第二代系统之间。
