Summary: The case of elderly people injured and killed in traffic
accidents in Croatia is used to illustrate a prediction method. This method
consists of several steps.First,the most importantvariables are
selected.Second,to overcome intercorrelation newvariables are constructed
that include the old ones.Third the new variables and its first derivatives
are udes in a rank correlation method.The results show good predictive
capabilities.
Keywords: Model prediction,elderly people's injury and death,road traffic accidents.

Summary: Many studies about accidents of school children have shown
that the most common hospitalized injuries are in sport,recreation and
playing (SRP).To determine how risk situation influence that kind of
injuring,a model was made for children (7-14yrs.)in the Koprivnica
district,Croatia.The data of interviewed and medically treated injured
children were synthesized into a linear system (6x3 matrix).Four
mathematical methods were used to determinate the values of high,medium and
low risk exposure."Risk quantity" was introduced as the numerical
descriptor of the risk category.
A total of 388 children from this area were injured during 1992. and 128
(33.0%)in SRP.The highest risk quantity (13947)is found in children living
in medium risk circumstances and the risk quantity of children living in
high risk situations was four times lower (3574).The children with a low
risk exposure have the lowest impact on injuries (risk quantity -6988).Risk
quantities
were also calculated for boys and girls and for younger and older school
children.The amount and sign of risk quantities influence the number of
injured children.Children in the medium risk group are most vulnerable to
accidents.
Keywords: Risk quantity, injuries in sport recreation and playing, school children

Summary: On the project "Accident and Injury Register and Prevention
Programs",data collection on all those injured who have sought medical aid,
started in Koprivnica in 1992. Using the data processing method validated
by relating the meaning of the observed individual phenomena to the outcome
of the final event, the present paper presents some findings on the extent
of the injury problem in children aged 1-4 years.Entropy of the final
outcome was calculated for such different parameters as age, gender,place
of injury and severity of injury.Children below the age of 2 years to
exhibited lower entropy by place of injury. Their injuries,occuring at
home,were mostly light.Most frequent injuries at the age of 2 years or more
happened outside, they mostly affected boys and were light.The entropy
classification method has shown simple and selective features for the data
processing situations which involve health care events.
Keywords: Injuries, preschool children, classification entropy method
Title: POSSIBLE AMENDMENTS TO ICIDH:INITIAL STUDIES IN THE
REPUBLIC OF CROATIA

Language: engleski
Summary: The system of monitoring in Croatia the individuals
affected by psychophysical developmental disorders by means of a register
has revealed some ICD's limitations in recording the sequels of
disease.Though the results of testing the ICIDH on persons with physical
impairment,respectively physical disability,were positive,some amendments
are nevertheless suggested.They involve providing more examples of coding
practice,altering the classification for epilepsy and impairment of
continence and establishing new categories and subcategories for
classifications I and D common codes in the case of multiple disability
categories and a new group for individual-level assesments of the type and
degree of disabilty.
Keywords: Testing, physical impairment, physical disability, handicap, Register.
