Introduction <br />Attachment C <br />Attachment B <br />How was the manual developed? <br />This manual is a result of three years of work by experts from public health, transport, <br />psychology, planning and implementation, coordinated by WHO. An outline of the <br />content of the manual, based on a standard format developed for the good practice <br />manuals, was produced by a team of writers. A literature review was conducted to <br />gather evidence and examples for preparing the manual. Two international experts <br />conducted the review by assembling published and grey literature, extracting the <br />information and preparing a literature review summary. The summary was used to <br />provide information for different sections of the manual as well as categorize the <br />examples of good practice provided in Module 4 into proven, promising or those <br />with insufficient evidence at this time. Randomized controlled trials and case- <br />control studies were used as the gold standard. A team of experts prepared a draft <br />of the manual, which was reviewed by experts from health, transport, planning and <br />implementation backgrounds. The review comments were used to revise the manual. <br />An advisory committee of experts from the various partner organizations oversaw <br />the process of further developing the manual, as has been the case with the other <br />good practice manuals on helmets, speed, drinking and driving, seat-belts and child <br />restraints, and data systems. <br />Dissemination of the manual <br />The manual will be translated into various major languages, and countries are <br />encouraged to translate the document into local languages. The manual will be <br />disseminated widely through the distribution channels of all four organizations <br />involved in the series. <br />The manual is also available for downloading in PDF format from the websites of all <br />four partner organizations. This manual is downloadable from http://www.who.int/ <br />roadsafety, for example. <br />How to obtain more printed copies <br />Further copies can be requested by e-mailing traffic@who.int, or by writing to: <br />Department of Violence and Injury Prevention and Disability <br />World Health Organization <br />zo, Appia Avenue, CH-izii <br />Geneva 27, Switzerland <br />References <br />c.
