Priority setting
There are many threats to human health
Evidence-based health policy requires focusing on the most relevant
ones
Injury indicators aim to support decision makers in establishing the
priority of injury
![Page 3: Towards a standardised methodology for measuring the burden of disability due to injury](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54bca4a44a7959323a8b4574/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Disability Adjusted Life Year (DALY)
Integration of different disease end-points
effects vary widely in severity and time scale (acute and chronic effects,
mortality)
Comparison of different diseases
priority setting for intervention
Balancing of competing risks
positive and negative effects of interventions
Cost-effectiveness analyses
to compare various preventive and curative interventions

Theoretical example of the DALY
![Page 5: Towards a standardised methodology for measuring the burden of disability due to injury](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54bca4a44a7959323a8b4574/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Years lived with disability (YLD)
To calculate the disability component of the DALY data are required on:
• Incidence
• Age distribution of the cases
• Disability weights
• Duration of the health state
Standarised methodology needed!
![Page 6: Towards a standardised methodology for measuring the burden of disability due to injury](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54bca4a44a7959323a8b4574/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
WP5 Injury Disability Indicators
• Inventory of available methods to assess
the disability component of injury
• Key questions
a) Which injury cases should be included?
b) How to distinguish cases by injury diagnoses?
c) How to link injury diagnosis to disability information?
![Page 7: Towards a standardised methodology for measuring the burden of disability due to injury](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/54bca4a44a7959323a8b4574/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Q1. Selection of injury cases
Hospital based incidence data
• Patients treated at the ED
• Patients admitted to hospital
Underestimation of consequences
of less severe injuries(e.g. low ED density)
Representativeness?
Death
Hospital discharges
Ambulatory care visits: ED, outpatienttreatments, physician office visits
Injuries not requiring formal medical treatment,self care, no treatment

Q2. Distinguish cases by injury diagnosis
Linkage of data to disability information
Homogeneous groupings
• Age
• Gender
• Injury location
• Injury type
• Admission to hospital (yes/no)
Anatomical classification?
Comparison ICE, Barrell matrix and EUROCOST -> EUROCOST

Q3. Link diagnosis to disability information
Linkage of injury diagnosis to disability information
1) the proportion of injury cases with lifelong consequences
2) the disability weight of temporary and lifelong consequences

Deriving disability weights
Two distinct methods to render disability disability weights:
o - Empirical approach using EQ-5D or other intrument
(UK burden of injury study, Polinder et al., etc.)
o - Panel study approach
(Global Burden of Disease study, Dutch disability weights study, etc.)

Implementation
•Implementation recommended by WP5

Application in Dutch disease ranking estimates
Incidence data
• Hospitalized
• ED treated
• GP consultations
-> incidence same
-> higher ranking all injuries
-> home and leisure injuries in top 10
