We noted the human damage such as injury and illness after the Hyogo-ken Nambu Earthquake. In this study, from the view point of daily and non-daily affliction, we assessed the trend in earthquake-related diseases focusing on Osaka City emergency ambulance service activity records. Those records can be used to grasp details about emergencies in terms of a board range of factors, such as the attributes of the patient and situations of injuries. The data were found effective for ascertains two levels of earthquake-related diseases, especially in Yodogawa and Nishiyodogawa ward near Kobe City. Those areas showed a relatively high injury rate.
