In the context of a descriptive study of accidents occurring to children aged less than 16 yr old conducted in 1986 in Savoie, France (333,200 inhabitants; 74,400 children), the present survey focuses on their consequences during an 18-month period after hospitalization. The authors evaluate both the epidemiological impact of the accidents (14.2% of hospitalized children had mid-term consequences; 6.4% had sequelae, one-third of which were serious) and their economic impact: the medical and social costs of the consequences amounted to 1.4 million francs, totalizing almost 10.5 millions francs for the global cost of the accident after 18 months, in the Savoie department. The authors emphasize the difficulties of making such evaluations.
在1986年于法国萨瓦省开展的一项针对16岁以下儿童事故的描述性研究（当地有333,200名居民，74,400名儿童）中，本次调查聚焦于这些儿童住院后18个月期间事故造成的后果。作者评估了事故的流行病学影响（14.2%的住院儿童有中期后果；6.4%有后遗症，其中三分之一为严重后遗症）及其经济影响：后果造成的医疗和社会成本达140万法郎，18个月后萨瓦省事故的总费用总计近1050万法郎。作者强调了进行此类评估的困难。
