Unintentional mortality rate (crude) per 100,000 population.
Why is this important?
- Unintentional injuries are a leading cause of death in the US, regardless of age, gender, race, or economic status. Major categories of unintentional injuries include motor vehicle collisions, poisonings, and falls. Taking proper safety precautions and being aware of potential hazards at all times can prevent and reduce the burden of unintentional injuries, including the grief and loss for family and friends. Additional economic impacts include medical costs and resulting productivity losses per year.
