This report, covering injuries resulting in admission to Australian hospitals in the financial year 2008–09, is the seventh in the series which started in 2001–02.
The focus of the report is analysis of community injury (that is, injuries typically sustained in the home, workplace, street, etc.). The report also includes short sections on work and sports related injury, complications of surgical and medical care and residual injury such as adverse effects not elsewhere classified.
An estimated 412,985 community injury cases required hospitalisation during the twelvemonth period 2008–09 (239,345 males and 173,637 females).
