In this article we examine the latest information regarding pediatric sun protection and specifically focus on the impact of indoor tanning on children.
We examine and discuss the prevailing views and trends on ultraviolet radiation exposure, sun protection and the attendant adverse health effects among children. We identify the challenges related to limiting ambient ultraviolet exposure in children. As children, particularly adolescents, gain an understanding of sun protection, their use of ultraviolet radiation protection does not increase concordantly. We discuss health policies regarding ultraviolet radiation protection, compliance with these policies and potential methods to increase compliance. We also examine addiction-like behavior and other psychosocial factors affecting those who are regular indoor tanners. Finally, we consider possible alternatives to ultraviolet radiation induced tanning and whether encouraging these options leads to a confusing, mixed message from healthcare providers.
In this article we examine and discuss current practices, attitudes and recent trends in sun protection. We discuss indoor tanning, with special emphasis on the potential addictive qualities of ultraviolet radiation. Our goal is to identify opportunities and future directions to promote sun safety and protect children from harmful ultraviolet radiation exposure.
在本文中，我们研究了有关儿童防晒的最新信息，并特别关注室内晒黑对儿童的影响。
我们研究并讨论了有关儿童紫外线暴露、防晒及其伴随的不良健康影响的主流观点和趋势。我们确定了限制儿童周围紫外线暴露相关的挑战。随着儿童，尤其是青少年对防晒有了一定认识，他们对紫外线防护的使用并没有相应增加。我们讨论了有关紫外线防护的健康政策、对这些政策的遵守情况以及提高遵守率的潜在方法。我们还研究了类似成瘾的行为以及影响经常进行室内晒黑者的其他社会心理因素。最后，我们考虑了紫外线诱导晒黑的可能替代方法，以及鼓励这些选择是否会导致医疗保健提供者传递令人困惑、含混不清 的信息。
在本文中，我们研究并讨论了防晒方面的当前做法、态度和最新趋势。我们讨论了室内晒黑，特别强调了紫外线潜在的成瘾特性。我们的目标是确定促进阳光安全并保护儿童免受有害紫外线暴露的机会和未来方向。
