Implementation in Data Set Specifications: | Australian Sports Injury Data Dictionary Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, Recorded 09/08/2023 DSS specific information: Select the most appropriate item which best characterises the type of activity being undertaken by the person when injured. If two or more items are judged to be equally appropriate, select the one that comes first in the code list. The 'unorganised' category was created to include informal and social sport, fitness activities, and recreational activity. These categories are important to differentiate injuries that occur in a formal club structure to those that occur ad hoc such as in back yard cricket and touch at lunchtime. |
