The average incidence of these patients was 45 patients per day during 1992. During 1992. a total of 1,978 patients were hospitalised, out of which 1,520 (84%) were injured. A total of 633 patients (25%) were hospitalised due to injuries sustained in traffic accidents. All patients were examined and evaluated according to the standard protocol including GCS as well.
