Abstract

Background and Aim: This study was undertaken to determine the EFFECTIVENESS of a SAFE COMMUNITY program, as an international community-based program, for INJURY prevention and safety promotion, in KASHMAR.Materials and Methods: In this retrospective study, the data on injured patients consulting hospital emergency wards in KASHMAR and 44 other districts (as control) for a period of 3 years (March 20 2005 to March 19, 2008) were analyzed and compared.Results: The number of injuries/100,000 population in KASHMAR was 4654.6, 4570.9, and 4949.2 in March 2005-2006, 2006-2007, and 2007-2008, respectively. The corresponding figures (means) for the control districts were 822.7, 1130.0 and 1245.5. The INJURY-related fatality rate in the emergency ward for the 3 periods was 57.6, 52.9, and 44.2 per 100,000 in KASHMAR and 12.2, 13, and 11.9 per 100,000 in the control districts. The INJURY rate showed an increase and the INJURY-related fatality rate showed a decrease in both KASHMAR and the control districts over the 3 year period, but there was a statistically significant difference between the decreased INJURY-related fatality rate in KASHMAR (p<0.0001).Conclusion: The KASHMAR International SAFE COMMUNITY Program resulted in no significant decrease in the rate of injuries in KASHMAR. However, as compared to the control distrcts, it caused a decrease in the INJURY-related fatality rate over the 3-year period. Long-term studies are necessary to confirm these results.
