abstract="The Utah Student Injury Reporting System (SIRS), implemented in 1984 to monitor injuries to students in grades K-12 in Utah schools, has served as a model for surveillance systems created by other states and some European countries. This paper evaluates the Utah experience in developing and administering the SIRS. The evaluation identifies usefulness of the system, discusses the sensitivity of the system in detecting school injuries, estimates the system's costs, and provides suggestions to other states and districts interested in building a cost-effective and efficient surveillance instrument.",
