In the period from 1991-95, 1843 injuries caused by bottles were reported to the Danish EHLASS register, the latter representing 14.2% of the total number of patients seen in the Emergency Room in Denmark. The reports were classified as sharp or blunt injuries; age, sex, and body localisation were registered, and the injuries were grouped into eight body localisations. Hand injuries made up largest group (62%), and of these 92% were sharp injuries. The rest of the injuries (38%) were spread over the other zones, each representing 3-11%. Among the injuries there was a significant overrepresentation of males and young people between 10-24 years of age. Nearly 30% of the injuries were associated with a fall. We estimate that the total number of injuries caused by bottles was 2596/year, and that the incidence rate was 4.98/10,000 person years.
