“…First, RTAs affect young working-age people (15 -44 years) more than other groups. And second, the costs of dealing with the fallout of RTAs-to individuals and society as a whole-can be as high as 3% of gross domestic product (GDP) [2] [3]. Despite existing interventions [4] and progress on reducing morbidity and mortality rates, RTAs remain a major public health issue, even in developed countries [5] [6].…”

Introduction: Road traffic accidents (RTAs) are a major public health issue in developing countries, where roads tend to be built haphazardly and accidents take a heavy toll on victims-including leaving them disabled. This study seeks to identify those factors that cause RTA victims to become disabled as a result of their injuries. Methods: This retrospective community-based study looked at RTA victims treated in five public and faith-based hospitals in Benin. Disability was evaluated using the Washington Group on Disabilities Statistics questionnaire. The independent variables were related to the victim's socio-demographic traits, the circumstances of the accident, and post-crash response mechanisms. The proportions were compared using the chi-squared test, with a threshold of 5%. Results: The prevalence of disability among road traffic accident victims is 9.59% (CI 95%: 6.86%-13.20%). The occurrence of disability is associated with age (p = 0.002), occupational group (p = 0.0077), the mode of transport used to transfer the victim (p < 0.001) and the location of the injuries (p = 0.0035). The study also found that people fail to make sufficient use of post-crash response mechanisms. Conclusion: Public policy-makers should therefore focus on stepping up interventions to get more people using both protective equipment and post-crash response services.

“…1 Esto genera altos costos directos e indirectos para la sociedad en su conjunto, mismos que han sido documentados en trabajos previos. [2][3][4] En respuesta a esta problemática, durante 2011 México se sumó al Decenio de Acción por la Seguridad Vial proclamado por la Asamblea General de la Organización de las Naciones Unidas, 5 y lanzó oficialmente el Decenio de Acción para la Seguridad Vial 2011-2020 con la firma de la Estrategia Nacional de Seguridad Vial. 6 El objetivo principal del Decenio de Acción por la Seguridad Vial es estabilizar y reducir el alto número de muertes causadas por el tránsito.…”

México, Distrito Federal.(2) Investigadora independiente. Resumen Objetivo. Estimar la potencial subestimación de la mortalidad por lesiones de tránsito en las entidades federativas de México para un periodo de 15 años. Se buscó identificar variables sociales y económicas de cada entidad federativa que pudieran estar potencialmente asociadas con la calidad de la clasificación estadística de las defunciones. Material y métodos. Análisis secundario de bases de mortalidad, periodo 1999-2013. Mediante modelos de imputación múl-tiple, se identificaron los registros que pudieran ser muertes atribuidas al tránsito y se realizó un análisis de correlación simple. Resultados. La subestimación de defunciones por lesiones de tránsito durante el periodo fue de 18.85%, con importantes variaciones por entidad federativa. No hubo evidencia de que existiera asociación de alguna variable con el porcentaje de subestimación de la mortalidad. Conclusiones. La clasificación de la mortalidad es diferente en las entidades federativas. Esta información es de gran utilidad para focalizar intervenciones que permitan mejorar el registro de las defunciones en el país. AbstractObjective. To estimate the potential underestimation of mortality from traffic injuries at the subnational level in Mexico for a period of 15 years and to identify social and economic variables at the state level that could potentially be associated with the quality of statistical classification of deaths. Materials and methods. Secondary analysis of validated mortality databases for the period 1999-2013 was conducted. Using multiple imputation models, registries that could potentially be attributed to road traffic deaths were estimated and the potential underestimation of mortality due to this external cause was quantified. A simple correlation analysis was carried out. Results. The potential underestimation of deaths from traffic injuries during the period was 18.85% at the national level, with significant variations by state. From the data analyzed, there was no statistical evidence of any association of the percentage of road traffic deaths underestimation with the variables analyzed. Conclusions. Performance in terms of mortality classification is different at the state level in Mexico. This information is useful for targeting interventions to improve the recording of deaths in the country.

“…11 Assim, a gravidade da lesão e a depressão, ocasionada por ela, interferem na reabilitação do paciente, limitando o desempenho das atividades cotidianas e restringindo a sua participação social. [11][12] Além das restrições impostas pela lesão, é preciso estar preparado para enfrentar as sequelas que o acidente causou, conforme afirma P3.…”

Objetivo: identificar a percepção do paciente traumatológico acerca da assistência prestada. Método: trata-se de uma pesquisa descritiva, cujos dados foram coletados entre agosto e outubro de 2015, abordando-se oito pacientes por meio da entrevista semiestruturada. Analisou-se as informações colhidas por meio da análise de conteúdo temática, criando-se três categorias: experiência com a lesão, percepção frente a hospitalização e assistência recebida pela equipe de saúde. Resultados: identificou-se a percepção positiva e a demonstração de surpresa em relação ao processo de tratamento do trauma durante hospitalização. Além disso, os pacientes se demonstraram satisfeitos quanto ao atendimento da equipe multiprofissional, principalmente no que se refere à comunicação eficiente e aos cuidados oferecidos. Considerações finais: a satisfação do paciente está relacionada aos recursos humanos e materiais disponíveis na unidade traumatológica, por isso é necessário oferecer, além de um cuidado de qualidade, uma infraestrutura adequada ao acolhimento do paciente e de seu acompanhante.
