Introduction: Fall from ladders is increasingly identified as a significant cause of injury and mortality, yet large-scale research into ladder fall outcomes and trends is limited.
Objectives: To explore the nature and severity of injuries resulting from ladder falls and to determine predictors of Injury Severity Score (ISS) and 6-month mortality.
Methods: Data were obtained from the New South Wales (NSW) Trauma Registry, Admitted Patient Data Collection and Registry of Births, Deaths, and Marriages on patients aged 15 and over who had major trauma from a ladder fall and were admitted to hospital between January 1st, 2012, and July 31st, 2019.
