Although injury reduction targets have been established and indicators have been developed to measure progress in prevention, no method of evaluating and accessing effective injury prevention practices is currently available.This compendium aims to fill this gap by portraying exemplars that have the potential to reduce the incidence of these injuries, and by providing a detailed methodology that is effective in identifying innovative best practices. The intention of this work is not to be encyclopaedic; rather, the authors have reviewed the twenty-eight best and promising practices, taking into consideration the complexity of injury dynamics, and analysed what constitutes a best practice as the shift is made from individual clinical practice to the collective practice associated with policy implementation at the community level.The first worldwide assessment of best practices, this work is expected to be an important contribution to the emerging field of unintentional-injury prevention with its unique coverage of the life span, up-to-date bibliography, and directory of the major programs and professionals. 606 $aNervous system$xWounds and injuries$xPrevention 606 $aAccidents$xPrevention 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aNervous system$xWounds and injuries$xPrevention. 615 0$aAccidents$xPrevention. 676 $a617.4/804452 700 $aVolpe$b Richard$01048824 702 $aLewko$b John 702 $aBatra$b Angela 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456454103321 996 $aA compendium of effective, evidence-based best practices in prevention of neurotrauma$92477363 997 $aUNINA
