RESUMEN
OBJETIVO:
Determinar la prevalencia y distribución de los accidentes de tránsito no fatales (ATNF) en México. MATERIAL YMÉTODOS:
Se utilizaron datos de la ENSANUT 2006. En los hogares visitados se seleccionó a un adulto, un adolescente y un niño, hasta conformar una muestra de 94197 sujetos que representa a la N de 102 886 482 individuos. La variable dependiente fue la prevalencia de ATNF en los 12 meses anteriores a la encuesta.RESULTADOS:
La prevalencia de accidentes (de tránsito o no) fue de 6.0 por ciento y de esa cifra 16.7 por ciento correspondió a ATNF. Los hombres del grupo de 20 a 44 años, los habitantes de áreas urbanas y los de mejor nivel socioeconómico (NSE) presentaron mayor prevalencia (p<0.05). Jalisco, Aguascalientes y Sonora registraron la mayor prevalencia y Guerrero, Michoacán y Oaxaca la menor.CONCLUSIONES:
Los ATNF en México se concentran en hombres de edad productiva en zonas urbanas y se relacionan con el NSE individual y el desarrollo económico de cada estado.ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To determine non-fatal road traffic injuries (NFRTI) prevalence and its distribution in Mexico. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
Data from ENSANUT Survey 2006 were used. Using simple random sampling, one adult, one adolescent and one child were selected in each household, constituting a final sample of 94 197 representing an N of 102 886 482 people. The dependent variable was the prevalence of road traffic injuries (RTI) during the 12 months prior to the survey.RESULTS:
The general accident prevalence was 6.0 percent; 16.7 percent corresponded to NFRTI. Men in the 20 to 44 age group living in urban areas and with high socioeconomic status had a higher RTI prevalence (p<0.05). Jalisco, Aguascalientes and Sonora were states with the highest prevalence of RTI, while Guerrero, Michoacan and Oaxaca were those with the lowest.CONCLUSIONS:
NFRTI are frequent in Mexico and they are concentrated among men in productive ages in urban areas; they are associated with socioeconomic status at the individual level and with the state's development at the population level.
