dc.description.abstract | A pilot study of violent injury surveillance was implemented in two
hospitals in Kano, Nigeria, in two phases: a formative evaluation
including training and arranging the collection of hospital information,
followed by a 6 month prospective data collection. Road traffic injuries
constituted about 80 per cent of the cases, gunshot injuries were the
commonest in victims of interpersonal violence (IPV). The causes and
context of IPV, the relationship of victims and perpetrators, and the
place, related activities and anatomical site of injuries from IPV are
summarized. | en_US |
