Injury data from Consumer Product Safety Commission National Electronic Injury Surveillance System was analyzed to determine the frequency and severity of bathtub and shower area injuries and the chain-of-events surrounding the accidents. Remedial designs were developed for 17 high-priority accident scenarios and each design was evaluated for cost-effectiveness. The best remedial designs were recommended for new or retrofit applications.
