1P1-B24 Injury Modeling by Bodygraphic Injury Surveillance System

Abstract

This paper describes a bodygraphic injury surveillance system in which a conventional injury surveillance system and a bodygraphic information system are integrated. The bodygraphic injury surveillance system allows us to represent and accumulate external injury related information in a normalized and multilayered way. The system also enables to retrieve necessary data using not only text query such as injury situation and injury mechanism and but also bodygraphic query. This paper also reports examples of injury modeling and statistical analysis by the developed system and 1,628 injury cases data collected in a hospital.
