Abstract: Objective To investigate the level and characteristics of injury death and the situation of potential years of life lost (PYLL) among residents in Zhuzhou City in 2015, and to provide a scientific decision basis for injury prevention and control. Methods On the basis of the data about monitoring of causes of deaths in Zhuzhou City in 2015, we analyzed the main causes of injury deaths and PYLL among residents by using the indicators, including the mortality rate, standardized mortality rate, sequence of death causes, PYLL and average potential years of life lost (AYLL). The comparison of rate was performed by using Chi-square test. Results The mortality rate of residents in Zhuzhou City in 2015 was 38.85/100,000 (with the standardized mortality rate being 36.55/100,000). The standardized mortality rate was higher in females than in males (44.70/100,000 vs. 30.86/100,000, χ2=44.51, P=0.000). The PYLL and AYLL due to injuries were 30,058 person-years and 26.6 years respectively. Road traffic accident, accidental fall, drowning, suicide and accidental poisoning were the leading causes of injury-related deaths. Most drowning deaths occurred in the age group of 0~ year, most road traffic accident deaths in the age groups of 15- and 45- years, and most accidental fall deaths in the age group of 65- years. Conclusions Injury was the main cause of deaths among residents in Zhuzhou City in 2015. The burden of disease from injury is heavy and seriously affects the improvement of life expectancy of residents. It is necessary to conduct injury prevention and control work based on the local actual condition and characteristics of different crowds.
