Implementation and application of injury data collection system for traffic accident (1/2)

  • Date:2019-03-05

  • Department:IOT

Research result:

  Submit the definition of severity for the traffic accident injuries in Taiwan where the 24-hour hospitalization will be based for determining minor and serious injuries in order to immediately distinguish the severity of the injury within the limit processing time. In this way, the number of minor and serious injuries caused by traffic accident can be defined in order to provide the traffic and medical treatment. Furthermore, it will help the rescue department develop the correct measures for reducing the severity of injury.

  The assessment will be conducted according to the traffic accident injury data process established by New Taipei City Fire Squad and the collaborate hospitals/clinics. In the future, it is hoped that a job delegation system could be established for the police, emergency rescue technician and medical person in order to set up a sound data collection system. In this way, we may achieve more complete and more time-demanding accident injury data to provide a foundation for data analysis.

  Complete the initial sample analysis that will affect the severity of injury caused by motorcycle accidents. In the meantime, the repeated higher injury probability, the use of 3C product, the use of drugs, the driving behavior and the habitude, as well as the injury severity are also closely concerned. Allow the medical unit and social public to understand the hazardous factors in motorcycle driving in order that such behavior could be corrected to minimize the risks of traffic accidents.

Promotion of result:

  • Through the announcement and dissemination of research results in 2017, we hope that it will inspire the concern of people, stakeholders and groups for their own interest so that they will cooperate with the competent government agencies in dealing with the motorcycle safety issues and contribute the required resources. To this extent, they may serve as the supporting source for promotional education.
  • In 2017, we will continue the joint research plan for the “ Implementation and application of injury data collection system for traffic accident (2/2)” in order that we may cooperate with the medical facilities and police agency to collect data and execute wider analysis of injury severity samples relating to the motorcycle accident. In this way, we may obtain more intensive result from the existing research in order to present more realistic hazardous factors for motorcycle accident.
