“…Por tanto, habrá más conflicto de movilidad. La proyección de crecimiento del pib de Medellín y el Área Metropolitana respecto del resto de Antioquia [22] y las perspectivas de Colombia en relación al acuerdo de paz, generan un escenario definido de mejora del ingreso que se expresará, entre otros, en mayor densidad demográfica en Medellín y sostenida motorización, semejante a Brasil, Rusia, India, China y Sudáfrica, los países brics [23].…”

“…Los brics se encuentran en una transición demográfica y epidemiológica impulsada por el rápido crecimiento económico y el cambio tecnológico; los cambios de carga de enfermedades y lesiones, como los aumentos en iv son motivo de preocupación. Estos países, como Medellín, necesitan una capacidad institucional más fuerte para hacer frente a esos cambios y desafío actual [23]. Hay reclamo en mejorar indicadores de sv e invertir en intervenciones que reduzcan morbimortalidad por iv, algo que exige liderazgo y gestión innovadora de la movilidad, incluyendo decisiones radicales que tocan límites al Derecho Constitucional del artículo 24 de la carta política.…”

Road traffic incidents epidemiology in Medellin-Colombia, 2010 Epidemiologia de incidentes rodoviários em Medellín-Colômbia, 2010 ResumenIncidentes Viales (iv) trasfieren energía cinética entre superficies inertes y vivas en corredores de movilidad. Causan lesiones fatales y no fatales, con efectos en salud, bienestar y productividad. No dependen del azar o suerte y no son accidentes como Naciones Unidas señaló hace décadas. Objetivo: describir la epidemiología de iv en Medellín 2010-2015, como referente para proponer un Modelo de Gestión en Seguridad Vial -el mogesvi. Metodología: retrospectiva, con diversas fuentes sobre IV y análisis uni o bivariado. Resultados: desde 2010 hay registro creciente, acumulando 275.000 iv a 2015, con media de 45.000/año y 135/día; lo no registrado podría ser 4 veces más. Hubo lesiones en 50% de los iv registrados en Informe Policial de Accidente de tránsito (ipat), con media de 300 muertos/año y unos 3.000 heridos/año; lesionados no registrados pueden ser 10 veces más, 30.000/año. La mayoría de iv afecta pobres, peatones, moteros y ciclistas, principalmente varones de 15-29 años, en zonas residenciales. Conclusiones: liderazgo, Política Pública, Observatorio en Seguridad Vial y Gestión del Plan de Movilidad Segura a 2020 son críticos para reducir riesgo, exposición y frecuencia de IV.----------Palabras clave: epidemiología, accidente de tránsito, mortalidad, grupos vulnerables. AbstractRoad traffic incidents (rti) transfer kinetic energy between inert and living surfaces on roads. They cause fatal and non-fatal injuries, affecting people's health, well-being and productivity. They are not random, and they are not accidents like the United Nations pointed out many decades ago. Objective: the purpose of this study is to describe rtaepidemiology in Medellin from 2010 to 2015 as a referent and propose a road traffic management model-a rtmm. Methodology: this is a retrospective study using different rti sources and a univariate or bivariate analysis. Results: from 2010 to 2015, there was an increasing rti record of 275,000 events, with a mean of 45,000/ year and 135/day, and what has not been recorded could be 4

“…(Hyder, 2014)(Nhac-Vu, 2014) WHO has published the most recent report on global road safety in 2013 and stated that 1.24 million people were killed on the world's roads in 2010. (Toroyan, 2013) (Dalal, 2013) Road traffic injuries are the eighth leading cause of death globally, and the leading cause of death for young people aged 15-29.…”

ABSTRACT:This was a Prospective Cohort Study commencing from July 2011 until June 2013 involving all injuries related to motor vehicle crashes (MVC) attended Emergency Departments (ED) of two tertiary centers in a district in Malaysia. Selected attributes were geospatially analyzed by using ARCGIS (by ESRI) software version 10.1 licensed to the institution and Google Map free software and multiple logistic regression was performed by using SPSS version 22.0. A total of 439 cases were recruited. The mean age (SD) of the MVC victims was 26.04 years (s.d 15.26). Male comprised of 302 (71.7%) of the cases. Motorcyclists were the commonest type of victims involved [351(80.0%)]. Hotspot MVC locations occurred at certain intersections and on roads within borough of Kenali and Binjai. The number of severely injured and polytrauma are mostly on the road network within speed limit of 60 km/hour. A person with an increase in ISS of one score had a 37 % higher odd to have disability at hospital discharge (95% CI: 1.253, 1.499, p-value < 0.001). Pediatric age group (less than 19 years of age) had 52.1% lesser odds to have disability at discharge from hospital (95% CI: 0.258, 0.889, p-value < 0.001) and patients who underwent operation for definitive management had 4.14 times odds to have disability at discharge from hospital (95% CI: 1.681, 10.218, p-value = 0.002). Overall this study has proven that GIS with a combination of traditional statistical analysis is still a powerful tool in road traffic injury (RTI) related research.

“…The increasing number of vehicles and the complexity of the traffic, besides the fast urbanization, seems to be key factors for the growth in the number of injuries resulting from traffic accidents 54 . The growth of accidents involving motorcycles requires joint action of public entities and drivers, promoting educational activities to prevent these accidents 16 .…”

Trends in hospitalizations due to motorcycle accidents involving men aged 20 to 39 years in the state of Santa Catarina - Southern Brazil

et al. 2017

Introduction Motorcycles accidents are responsible for most of the injuries due to external causes and consequent high hospitalization rates. Objective This study aimed to analyze the temporal trend in motorcycle accident morbidity among young male adults in the State of Santa Catarina. Methods This is an ecological study on motorcycle accident morbidity in men aged 20 to 39 years in the State of Santa Catarina between 1998 and 2012. Data from the Hospital Information System of the Brazilian Unified Health System were used in the study. Specific hospital morbidity rates adjusted for age, age group and geographical region, were calculated to analyze the temporal trend in the State through regression model estimates obtained using the Joinpoint program. Results A total of 19.889 hospital admissions for motorcycle accidents occurred in the State of Santa Catarina in the period studied, with a significant increase of 10.9% per year. In the studied age groups, the 20-29 year old group increased 9.7% per year, whilst the 30-39 year old group increased 13.7%. Except for Foz do Rio Itajaí, all geographical regions of the state showed a significant increase of morbidity. Conclusion There has been an increasing trend of morbidity for motorcycle accidents in State of Santa Catarina. These results show the need for improvement of policies to reduce the causes of this type of accident.
