Their prevention must be a major public health goal. Whilst there has been an increased awareness of the occurrence of sports injuries, and some successful countermeasures have been used to prevent a limited number of such injuries, the picture in Australia remains fragmented. In particular, there is a lack of data about the circumstances of injury and potential points of intervention in the chain of events leading to injury. Furthermore, comprehensive information on participation rates and player hours is needed to determine the relative risks of injury in various sports and to target interventions. Given a framework for injury prevention, it is important that a system of sports injury surveillance is developed. The current lack of clear, coherent and relevant data for Australia makes this a priority. This report therefore provides the results of a feasibility study of improved data collection methodologies for sports injuries for Australia. This study summarises the existing data collections that provide information on sports injuries within Australia and overseas, including their limitations. The results of a survey of key sports and other relevant professional bodies are also presented to describe the current barriers to sports injury data collections. Together, these form the basis for determining the feasibility of establishing improved data collection methodologies for sports injury in Australia. Recommendations include the identification of a lead agency, collaboration between the health and sports sectors, increased involvement of sports bodies in data collection activities, provision of infrastructure support for these activities, enhancement of government data collections, development of standardised data collection procedures and coding systems and improved training.

    Distr. GENERAL 02 September 2013 WP 14 ENGLISH ONLY UNITED NATIONS ECONOMIC COMMISSION FOR EUROPE CONFERENCE OF EUROPEAN STATISTICIANS Seminar on Statistical Data Collection (Geneva, Switzerland, 25-27 September 2013) Topic (ii): Managing data collection functions in a changing environment THE BUSINESS STATISTICAL PORTAL: A NEW WAY OF ORGANIZING AND MANAGING DATA COLLECTION PROCESSES FOR BUSINESS SURVEYS IN ISTAT Working Paper Prepared by Natale Renato Fazio, Manuela Murgia, Andrea Nunnari, ISTAT – Italian National Statistical Institute I. Introduction 1. A broad shift of the social and technological context requires ISTAT to modify the way data are collected in order to improve the efficiency in producing timely estimates and, at the same time, to increase or at least maintain the level of data quality, while reducing respondent burden. All of this, within a climate of general budgets cuts. 2. In 2010, as a way to deal with these challenges, a medium-long term project was launched (Stat2015), envisaging the gradual standardisation and industrialisation of the entire cycle of ISTAT statistical processes, according to a model based on a metadata-driven, service-oriented architecture. With regard to data collection, as well for the other production phases, Stat2015 aims at outlining strong enterprise architecture standards. 3. A first step along these lines was to develop a comprehensive set of requirements according to which select, design or further develop the IT tools supporting data collection. The requirements encompassed four areas, covering the main functions of the entire (data collection) process: i) Survey unit management, ii) Data collection management, iii) Questionnaire, iv) Communication facilities. 4. A significant contribution to the definition and implementation of these requirements came with the development of the new ISTAT Business Statistical Portal, a single entry point for Web-based data collection from enterprises, which is at the same time an attempt to streamline the organization and management of business surveys as a whole.

  • Standardization and Harmonization of Data and Data Collection Initiatives
    Conference of the Parties to the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control Fourth session FCTC/COP/4/15 Punta del Este, Uruguay, 15–20 November 2010 15 August 2010 Provisional agenda item 6.2 Standardization and harmonization of data and data collection initiatives Report of the Convention Secretariat INTRODUCTION 1. At its third session (Durban, South Africa, 17–22 November 2008) the Conference of the Parties requested the Convention Secretariat to compile a report on data collection measures, in decision FCTC/COP3(17). The decision outlined the fact that this should be undertaken under the guidance of the Bureau, and with the assistance of competent authorities within WHO, in particular WHO’s Tobacco Free Initiative, as well as relevant intergovernmental and nongovernmental organizations with specific expertise in this area. Paragraph 6 of the decision stated that the report should cover measures: to improve the comparability of data over time; to standardize1 collected data within and between Parties; to develop indicators and definitions to be used by Parties’ national and international data collection initiatives; and to further harmonize2 with other data collection initiatives. 2. The request to provide such a report is in line with Article 23.5 of the Convention, which requires the Conference of the Parties to “keep under regular review the implementation of the Convention” and to “promote and guide the development and periodic refinement of comparable methodologies for research and the collection of data, in addition to those provided for in Article 20, relevant to the implementation of the Convention”. 1 Standardization: the adoption of generally accepted uniform technical specifications, criteria, methods, processes or practices to measure an item.

  • Collapsing the Distinction Between Experimentation and Treatment in the Regulation of New Drugs
    File: LAAKMANN EIC PUBLISH.doc Created on: 3/30/2011 4:56:00 PM Last Printed: 4/7/2011 11:58:00 AM COLLAPSING THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN EXPERIMENTATION AND TREATMENT IN THE REGULATION OF NEW DRUGS Anna B. Laakmann* The explosion of scientific knowledge in recent decades has simulta- neously increased pressure on the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) both to expedite market entry of promising medical breakthroughs and to safeguard the public from harms caused by new products. Ironically, as the FDA and drug manufacturers spend huge sums in the premarketing phase gathering and interpreting data from planned trials, an enormous amount of valuable information about postmarketing clinical experiences with FDA-regulated drugs is not being effectively captured. The Article asserts that the FDA should formally recognize the blurred line between experimentation and treatment by adopting a more fluid approach to its review of new medical technologies. It argues that the FDA should shift its focus toward harnessing and distilling accumulated experiential knowledge about the effects of new drugs so as to enable patients and doctors to make rational treatment decisions based on inevitably imperfect information. The Article sets forth an alternative regulatory approach that seamlessly incor- porates prospective outcomes data into the FDA drug review process. This approach would be facilitated by the creation of a centralized database that serves as a clearinghouse of information about treatment outcomes. The proposed scheme would help to address current failures in the imple- mentation of the agency’s “fast-track” programs. More broadly, it could serve as the instrumentality to effectuate a shift in the perceived role of the FDA from market gatekeeper to consolidator and purveyor of information about drug safety and efficacy.

  • Lindsay Gaze 1 While I Was Playing at Our National and International Level
    Lindsay Gaze 1 While I was playing at our national and international level my club was privileged to host many fine teams from the United States of America and Europe as well as an occasional stop over in Asia to take part in tournaments or exhibition games. During this period I also had the chance to meet outstanding coaches who have influenced my philosophy of the game and coaching methods. One of the most significant pieces of advice was to select a style of play, learn from others who have similar points of view and stick with it. My own coach, Ken Watson, who coached Australia’s first Olympic team in 1956 and again in 1968, introduced a “shuffle” offence after being impressed by Bruce Drake, one of the assistant coaches of the USA 1956 Olympic team. When I took over coaching the Melbourne “Tigers” in 1971 I adopted similar methods, although many refinements have been made as the skills and athleticism of players have developed incredibly since then. The national teams I coached at Olympics and World Championships from 1972 to 1985 used the same methods as my club teams, but in each case the points of emphasis would vary depending on the talent available. During my time as coach of our national team we were always giving away size and height advantage to our main opponents and yet were able to produce leading scorers such as Eddie Palubinskas, Ian Davies and Andrew Gaze. In 1984 the Australian team was dubbed “the undersize over achievers. The Melbourne “Tigers” shuffle offense requires every player to be capable of playing every position and it is not unusual for the taller forwards and centres to be playing the same roles usually reserved for guards.
