Longitudinal cohort study of injury type, settings, treatment and costs in British Columbia youth, 2003-2013

Conclusions
The occurence and health cost of common injuries to youth and young adults are underestimated in this study but are nevertheless substantial. Ongoing surveillence, awareness raising, and prevention efforts may be needed to reduce these costs.
