Abstract:
Objective This report performed an retrospective analysis on 103 cases of falling accident by exploring the relationship between falling height and injury, horizontal distance, types of cases. Method All the statistics were collected from cases between 2001~2015 in Kunming, and calculated by spss17.0. Result Skull fracture was commonly seen in cases with falling height above 11m. And rib fracture was commonly seen in cases with the height above 21m. A positive correlation between falling height and horizontal distance was found in this experiment. Suicide was more common in case with height above 11m and horizontal distance above 1.1m. Conclusion Injury and horizontal distance can serve as a supplementary index to evaluate falling height and the types of cases.
