Public health lessons learned from analysis of New York City subway injuries.

Amber A Guth1, Andrea O'Neill, H Leon Pachter, Thomas Diflo.   

Abstract

Serious subway injuries are devastating to their young victims and have high rates of mortality and amputation. We identified the urban population at greatest risk for subway injuries and investigated the influence of local economies on injury rates. We propose using changes in social conditions as a "trigger" for increased vigilance and protective measures at times of higher risk.
