Abstract:
Objective To establish a road traffic crash (RTC) & traffic injury (RTI) database database with scientific and reasonable structure. Methods ( 1 ) A set of scientific and standard RTC&RTI survey form was made and a software for collection of data on RTC&RTI developed. (2) The general data on RTI&RTI of China was obtained from traffic management departments of China and the data of some districts in Chongqing from 2000 to 2006 were obtained. All the data were input into the database for analysis. Results A TRC&RTI database software V1. 0 was developed based on the survey form. The input items included data about the areas where the accidents occurred, the general situation of the specific accident, the road conditions, the accident causes and responsibilities, the vehicle and the injury to persons. We obtained the RTC and RTI data of China during past 13 years and collected data on 33 987 cases of RTC and 52369 RTI of four districts in Chongqing. The RTC&RTI database was established. Conclusions The database has involved detailed data of general road crashes and injury as well as individual crash, which provides a good support for further study of RTC and RTI.
