| Scientific title | A prospective study aiming to measure the population burden of injuries in the United Kingdom |
| Study objectives | The UK Burden of Injuries Study is a prospective study which aims to measure the population burden of injuries in the UK. It is a mixed methods study with quantitative and qualitative components. Participants are recruited from injured people attending emergency departments or who have been admitted to hospital with injuries. Participants complete quality of life, health service utilisation and and work limitation questionnaires at baseline, 1, 4 and 12 months post injury or until they have completely recovered. Study specific data on patterns of recovery by injury type are combined with population estimates of injury from computerised inpatient, emergency department and mortality data and extrapolated to estimate the UK Burden of Injuries, primarily utilising the Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) approach. |
| Ethics approval(s) | Dyfed Powys Local Research Ethics Committee approved on the 24th May 2005 (ref: 05/WMW01/23) |

| Intervention | The UKBOI Study was an observational study which combined prospectively collected data from an injured cohort with national and local mortality, inpatient and emergency department statistics and databases to estimate the UK burden of injuries. A total of 1517 injured individuals were recruited and followed up until recovery or to 1 year. Data were collected at baseline, 1, 4 and 12 months of follow up. Follow up length: 12 months Study entry: registration only |
