“…While there is a dearth of research to establish the effectiveness of violence intervention programs, there is evidence that SBIRT efforts reduce problem drinking (Bazargan-Hejazi et al, 2005) and by extension, violence involvement. Cooper, Eslinger & Stolley (2006) recently demonstrated that a resource intense program for violence-involved admitted trauma patients can reduce both criminal and health care adverse outcomes.…”

The medical literature has focused on violent victimization as a public health concern, examining its correlates and evaluating intervention models. However, the emphasis on victimization in this literature overlooks the strong ties between victimization and offending risks outlined in the criminological literature, which may unnecessarily limit the scope of public health efforts to influence violence in our communities. This study examines whether the similarities observed in

“…A handful of studies have used case management approaches among youth admitted for assault-related injuries with some positive short term findings. 37,38 In our study, given 77% of youth were discharged from the ED, such inpatient approaches would have missed 3 out of 4 assaultinjured youth.…”

“…Case managementbased interventions are increasingly being implemented with promising preliminary outcomes among those admitted to surgery units with severe injury. 37,38 Nonetheless, the majority of assault-injured youth are treated in the ED and released, underscoring the need for an examination of a broader sample of all assault-injured youth presenting for care.…”

“…Several studies have found that HVIPs are effective in collecting violent injury data and that they can reduce repeat violent injury and the costs associated with injury. [21][22][23] These programs collect data on the mode of injury (i.e., gunshot wound or GSW) as well as data on the context and circumstances surrounding the violent injury. HVIPs collect data on the circumstances of the injury in ways similar to data collected by the FBI and NLEOMF on officers' shot in the line of duty.…”

This paper examines an alternative solution for collecting reliable police shooting data. One alternative is the collection of police shooting data from hospital trauma units, specifically hospital-based violence intervention programs. These programs are situated in Level I trauma units in many major cities in USA. While the intent of these programs is to reduce the risk factors associated with trauma recidivism among victims of violent injury, they also collect reliable data on the number of individuals treated for gunshot wounds. While most trauma units do a great job collecting data on mode of injury, many do not collect data on the circumstances surrounding the injury, particularly police-involved shootings. Research protocol on firearm-related injury conducted in emergency departments typically does not allow researchers to interview victims of violent injury who are under arrest. Most victims of nonfatal police-involved shootings are under arrest at the time they are treated by the ED for their injury. Research protocol on victims of violent injury often excludes individuals under arrest; they fall under the exclusion criteria when recruiting potential participants for research on violence. Researchers working in hospital emergency departments are prohibited from recruited individuals under arrests. The trauma staff, particularly ED physicians and nurses, are in a strategic position to collect this kind of data. Thus, this paper examines how trauma units can serve as an alternative in the reliable collection of police shooting data.
