Medical statistics methods were used; percentages were calculated and the epidemiology and the trends of relative indicators of fatal trauma were determined. It was shown that in some regions of the Russian Federation, the relative rates of fatal trauma with blunt and sharp objects were significantly higher than the national averages.
