N2  - Injury epidemiology is summarized and important concepts such as injury versus accident, the agent-host-environment model, level of severity, morbidity versus mortality, and definitions of rates are considered. The authors suggest steps needed to improve the understanding of injury epidemiology and to remove barriers to the acceptance of injury prevention as a recognized field of study and clinical practice.
