摘要:In Poland, falls constitute the major cause of hospitalisation and deaths among all types of accidents. Around 5,000 people die because of that per year (the standardised rate: 8.8. per 100,000 population). Nearly 70 % of the deaths caused by falls are related to slips and trips. A total of 11.3% deaths are connected with falling down stairs and other inclined surfaces. As many as 34 % of fatal falls remain further unexplained.
