description: Undersøgelsen belyser behandlingssøgning efter tilskadekomst, der defineres ved at respondenten har opfyldt mindst 1 af 3 kriterier (opgivet aktivitet, haft sygefravær eller opsøgt behandler efter tilskadekomst). Formålet er, ud over en repræsentativ beskrivelse af tilskadekomst, at belyse eventuelle forskelle i karakteristika for personen, omstændighederne eller skaden i forhold til det valgte behandlingssted. Endvidere har undersøgelsen et metodeorienteret sigte, idet man vil forsøge dels at give en vurdering af udformningen af rykkerbreve for opnåelse af svar, dels at belyse, hvorvidt ''ulykkesstatistikregistret i Odense'' (som har inddata fra sygehusvæsenet) giver et repræsentativt billede af tilskadekomst i området, og dels at belyse, hvor pålidelige selvrapporterede data vedr. tilfælde af tilskadekomst er.
        
        Undersøgelsesområdet er optagelsesområdet for Odense Sygehus (kommunerne: Odense, Vissenbjerg, Tommerup, Årslev, Langeskov, Munkebo, Otterup, Søndersø og Kerteminde).
        
        Det totale materiale med respondenten som observationsenhed er arkiveret under nærværende DDA-nummer, mens der til DDA-1223: ''Tilskadekomst i Odense Sygehus'' optagelsesområde 1983, skader'' er foretaget et udtræk af de sager, hvori en tilskadekomst eller et færdselsuheld er registreret - dette materiale har skaden/uheldet som observationsenhed
description: The survey examines the risk of accident occurrence and which treatment is given for the injuries. The definition 'injury' is valid if the respondent meets at least 1 of the following 3 criteria: has given up activity; has been absent from work owing to the injury; or has undergone treatment after the injury. In addition to obtaining a representative sample of injuries, the purpose of the survey is to examine possible differences in characteristics as regards the person, the circumstances or the injury in relation to the chosen treatment facility. Furthermore, the survey has a methodological aim as an attempt is made at assessing how to formulate written reminders in order to obtain replies to questionnaires and also at examining to what an extent the Statistics Register of Accidents (Ulykkesstatistikregistret) in Odense, which contains data input from the hospitals, gives a representative picture of the injuries in the area. Additionally, it gives a picture of how reliable self-reported data on accident occurrence are.     #  The area under investigation is the catchment area of Odense Hospital (i.e. the following municipalities: Odense, Vissenbjerg, Tommerup, Årslev, Langeskov, Munkebo, Otterup, Søndersø and Kerteminde).     #  The material was collected by means of postal questionnaires to a representative sample of the population aged 15-66 years in the catchment area of Odense Hospital. If the respondent (or the respondent's child aged 0-14 years) had been injured or had been involved in a traffic accident in the period 1 April to 30 September, 1983 additional information was obtained by extracts from registers and telephone interviews.     #  The complete material with the respondent as the unit of observation is filed under this DDA-number, whereas DDA-1223: 'Injuries in the Catchment Area of Odense Hospital 1983, II' consists of an extract of the cases in which injuries or a traffic accident was registered. In this material the unit of observation is the injury/accident
