Abstract: We use injury-level data from the 1997-2013 Integrated Health Interview Series (IHIS) to describe the prevalence of injuries, causes of injuries, and where they occurred among community-dwelling elders. We also describe the outcomes of these injuries, in terms of whether elders were hospitalized and how many days of work were lost due to injury.
