Health Status Outcomes for Unintentional Injury Hospitalizations

Health Status Outcomes

Unintentional injuries are often a contributing factor in temporary or permanent disability and poor health. Of all fall-related fractures, hip fractures cause the greatest number of deaths and lead to the most severe health problems and reduced quality of life. Falls are the leading cause of traumatic brain injury for age 60 and older. Source: National Center for Injury Prevention and Control
