Abstract

AIM

The aim of this study was to report on the severity and incidence of children injured by treadmills and to promote the implementation of safety standards.

METHOD

This retrospective review of children with treadmill friction injuries was conducted in a single tertiary-level burns centre in Australia between January 1997 and June 2007.

RESULTS

The study revealed 37 children who sustained paediatric treadmill friction injuries. This was a presentation of 1% of all burns. Thirty-three (90%) of the injuries occurred in the last 3.5 years (January 2004 to June 2007). The modal age was 3.2 years. Thirty-three (90%) injuries were either full thickness or deep partial friction burns. Eleven (30%) required split thickness skin grafts. Of those who became entrapped, 100% required skin grafting.

CONCLUSION

This study found that paediatric treadmill friction injuries are severe and increasing in incidence. Australian standards should be developed, implemented and mandated to reduce this preventable and severe injury.

摘要

目的

本研究旨在报告儿童跑步机损伤的严重程度和发生率，并推动安全标准的实施。

方法

1997年1月至2007年6月期间，在澳大利亚一家三级烧伤中心对患有跑步机摩擦伤的儿童进行了这项回顾性研究。

结果

该研究发现37名儿童遭受了儿科跑步机摩擦伤。这占所有烧伤病例的1%。其中33例（90%）损伤发生在过去3.5年（2004年1月至2007年6月）。损伤儿童的年龄中位数为3.2岁。33例（90%）损伤为全层或深部部分摩擦烧伤。11例（30%）需要进行中厚皮片移植。在那些被卡住的儿童中，100%需要进行皮肤移植。
