Kentucky Injury Prevention and Research Center
Data Available at KIPRC
The Kentucky Injury Prevention and Research Center maintains several injury related databases. Some of these we collect as part of individual projects and others we maintain under a contractual relationship with various agencies. Thus, each data set is classified into one of two groups: Those we collect, verify and enter ourselves or those we procure through other agencies. Presentation of these data takes many forms and interpretations of these data are the responsibility of the user. To protect confidentiality, none of the available data sets include personal identifiers.
Listed below are data available on-line and links to them.
