Background : Injuries and violence are among the most prominent public health problems in the world, as well as being a leading cause of mortality.Globally, each year more than 11,000 people are estimated to die within homes from preventable unintentional injuries. The majority (73%) of family victims were females.Objectives : This study is conducted to describe the epidemiological characteristics, estimate incidence and identify mechanism of fatal female domestic injuries (FFDI) in Iraq for the period of 2010 - 2015.Methods : A cross sectional study was conducted on all female home fatalities reported from all the coroner offices in Iraq for the period of 2010 - 2015 as part of Iraqi Injury Surveillance System (IISS). The injury surveillance form included detailed data on the demographics, injury circumstances and injury mechanisms. Populations' data of the country and the provinces were obtained from Ministry of Health (MOH) and Ministry of Planning.Results : The total number of FFDI during this period was 9,181with an average annual incidence of 11.9/100,000 female population (FP). FFDI represented 13.1% of total Fatal Injuries of IISS and 53.3% of domestic fatal injuries of IISS.Page II The incidence of FFDI decreased from 12.4/100,000FP in 2010 to 11/100,000FP in 2015. Mean age group was 47years, 55% occurred at the age group 10 - 29 years. The highest incidence 21.4/100,000FP was recorded at the age group 20 - 29 years. About 72% of FFDI were unintentional with average annual incidence 8.4 /100,000FP and 72% occurred during 6am - 5pm. The main causes of FFDI were : Burn (62%), electric injury (11.5%), and gun fire (7%) with average annual incidence 7.4, 1.3, and 0.7/100,000FP, respectively. The highest average incidence was reported in Erbil (22.3/100,000FP), Misan (20.2/100,000FP), and Sulaimaniya governorates (16.8/100,000FP) Conclusions : There is a need for implementing of effective community based preventive programs by regulatory measures, environmental changes, and education which may play a crucial role in the prevention of injuries in female home environments.
