Description:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Injury Center, The Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologist (CSTE), and the State and Territorial Injury Prevention Directors' Association (STIPDA) are pleased to bring you this second edition of the State Injury Indicators Report with 1999 data. Twenty-six state health departments voluntarily participated in this surveillance effort. The data inside represent continued progress toward routine surveillance and reporting of injury indicators in all states. This second edition incorporates data from a greater number of states and includes data on the poisoning indicator, with both gender and age-specific rates. The indicators were calculated by using state-level data from death certificates and hospital discharge records coupled with data from several national surveillance systems. As more states join in this surveillance, we can present a broader picture of the burden of injuries and better identify priorities for prevention. We look forward to increased state participation in future reports.
