The study was undertaken to estimate the prevalence of unintentional injury, identify the determinants and consequences among adolescents.<br \/>\n<em>Design and Methods:<\/em>\u00a0This cross-sectional study recruited 222 adolescents using systematic random sampling from a site covered under UHTC Srinagar Garhwal, Uttarkhand. Binary and multivariate logistic regression was used to compute crude and adjusted odds ratio [95% CI] for establishing an association between risk factors and unintentional injury. Descriptive measures (causes, consequences, etc.) describing injuries were presented in tabular, graphical form in proportions.<br \/>\n<em>Results:<\/em>\u00a073.1% of the adolescents suffered from unintentional injury. The risk factors associated (statistically insignificant) with \u00a0Unintentional Injury was \u00a0males (AOR =1.019, 95% CI =.524-1.979) , living in nuclear family (AOR = 1.540, 95% CI =.766-3.093) , smoked tobacco (AOR = 2.797, 95% CI :.227-34.4377) , visually impaired (AOR =1.629 95% CI :.548 &#8211; 6.458) and living in house with overcrowding(AOR =1.66,95% CI:.818-3.395) . 5 % of those affected with unintentional injury had disability.<br \/>\n<em>Conclusions:<\/em>\u00a0Health education addressing causes, risk factors, consequences of unintentional injury among adolescents, parents, school, and district health authorities should be mandated for the formulation of policy to prevent unintentional injuries.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"label\">REFERENCES<\/h3>\n<div class=\"value\">\n<p>Verma SK, Willets JL, Corns HL, et al.
