In 2013 4.8 million people died from injuries up from 4.3 million in 1990. More than 30% of these deaths were transport related injuries. In 2013 367,000 children less than five died from injuries down from 766,000 in 1990. Injuries are the cause of 9% of all death and are the sixth leading cause of death in the world.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs310/en/index2.html )〕 == Classification == The World Health Organization (WHO) developed the International Classification of External Causes of Injury (ICECI). Under this system, injuries are classified by * mechanism of injury, * objects/substances producing injury, * place of occurrence, * activity when injured, * the role of human intent, and additional modules. These codes allow the identification of distributions of injuries in specific populations and case identification for more detailed research on causes and preventive efforts.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=International Classification of External Causes of Injury (ICECI) )〕〔Robertson, LS (2015) Injury Epidemiology: Fourth Edition. Free online at www.nanlee.net〕 The United States Bureau of Labor Statistics developed the Occupational Injury and Illness Classification System (OIICS). Under this system injuries are classified by * nature, * part of body affected, * source and secondary source, and * event or exposure. The OIICS was first published in 1992 and has been updated several times since.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Centers for Disease Control and Prevention )〕 The Orchard Sports Injury Classification System (OSICS) is used to classify injuries to enable research into specific sports injuries. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Injury」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
