To instruct children and teenagers about safe transportation and about their behavior as cyclists and pedestrians.
The MEDLINE and LILACS databases were searched, using the following terms, from 1995 to 2005: traffic accidents, child, adolescent, morbidity, mortality, age, and gender. Scientific articles on morbidity and mortality from traffic accidents, children in a pedestrian situation, as cyclists or as motor vehicle passengers, were selected.
More than 300 scientific articles were found, but only the studies that addressed those issues in a broad manner were selected.
Traffic-related mortality rates are still very high and show the necessity to intensify educational campaigns for community awareness, in addition to encouraging investments in effective pedestrian safety. The pediatrician s role is to decrease the number of children and adolescents who get involved in traffic accidents by providing them with traffic guidance and education.
指导儿童和青少年安全出行，并规范他们作为骑自行车者和行人的行为。
检索了1995年至2005年的MEDLINE和LILACS数据库，使用了以下检索词：交通事故、儿童、青少年、发病率、死亡率、年龄和性别。选取了关于交通事故发病率和死亡率、处于行人状态的儿童、骑自行车者或机动车乘客的科学文章。
共找到300多篇科学文章，但仅选取了那些广泛探讨这些问题的研究。
与交通相关的死亡率仍然很高，这表明除了鼓励对有效的行人安全进行投资外，还需要加强提高社区意识的教育活动。儿科医生的作用是通过为儿童和青少年提供交通指导和教育，减少卷入交通事故的儿童和青少年数量。
