Jim Hofferberth

This presentation by Jim Hofferberth at the 2005 AMCHP Conference addresses the hidden epidemic of injuries during pregnancy, particularly focusing on the staggering statistic that pregnant women not wearing seatbelts are three times more likely to experience fetal death. Presented by Hank Weiss, PhD, from the Center for Injury Research and Control at the University of Pittsburgh, the session explores the effects of motor vehicle crashes on birth and fetal outcomes in Utah, proposing solutions through research projections and computer modeling to mitigate this critical public health issue.
