CPSC began\r\noperating NEISS in 1972 to monitor product-related injuries treated in\r\nUnited States hospital emergency departments (EDs). In June 1992, the\r\nNational Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC), within the\r\nCenters for Disease Control and Prevention, established an interagency\r\nagreement with CPSC to begin collecting data on nonfatal firearm-related\r\ninjuries to monitor the incidence and characteristics of persons with\r\nnonfatal firearm-related injuries treated in United States hospital EDs\r\nover time. This dataset represents all nonfatal firearm-related injuries\r\n(i.e., injuries associated with powder-charged guns) and all nonfatal BB\r\nand pellet gun-related injuries reported through NEISS from 1993 through\r\n2002. The cases consist of initial ED visits for treatment of the\r\ninjuries. Cases were reported even if the patients subsequently died.\r\nSecondary visits and transfers from other hospitals were excluded.\r\nInformation is available on injury diagnosis, firearm type, use of drugs\r\nor alcohol, criminal incident, and locale of the incident. Demographic\r\ninformation includes age, sex, and race of the injured person.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.3886/ICPSR04083.v1", "title": "Firearm Injury Surveillance Study, 1993-2002: [United States]"}], "identifier": "2260", "isPartOf": "2438", "issued": "2004-09-16T00:00:00", "keyword": ["accidents", "firearms", "handguns", "medical care", "nonfatal injuries", "product safety", "public health", "public safety"], "language": ["eng"], "license": "http://www.usa.gov/publicdomain/label/1.0/", "modified": "2005-11-04T00:00:00", "programCode": ["011:061"], "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "Bureau of Justice Statistics", "subOrganizationOf": {"acronym": "OJP", "id": 22, "name": "Office of Justice Programs", "parentOrganization": {"acronym": "DOJ", "id": 10, "name": "Department of Justice"}, "parentOrganizationID": 10}}, "title": "Firearm Injury Surveillance Study, 1993-2002: [United States]"}
