Childhood injuries cause significant mortality and morbidity in Iran, like in other developing countries. This study was undertaken to describe the pattern of pediatric trauma in a multi-center hospital-based study. Pre-hospital and hospital data were prospectively gathered on all hospitalized trauma patients admitted to six major trauma hospitals in Tehran from August 1999 to September 2000. Data from patients 12 years of age and younger were analyzed for this article. About 15.1% of the hospitalized trauma cases belonged to children. Mean age was 7.35 +/- 3.25 years and 69.1% of cases were male. Most of the cases were injured accidentally. More than half of the cases were injured due to falls, followed by road traffic accidents. Injuries in streets were the most common, followed by injuries at home. Recently, several injury prevention strategies have been designed and developed in Iran, and it is hoped these may contribute to decreasing the burden of childhood injuries in Iran.
与其他发展中国家一样,儿童伤害在伊朗导致了相当高的死亡率和发病率。本研究旨在通过一项基于多中心医院的研究来描述儿童创伤的模式。1999年8月至2000年9月期间,前瞻性收集了德黑兰六家主要创伤医院所有住院创伤患者的院前和院内数据。本文分析了12岁及以下患者的数据。约15.1%的住院创伤病例为儿童。平均年龄为7.35 +/- 3.25岁,69.1%的病例为男性。大多数病例为意外受伤。超过一半的病例因跌倒受伤,其次是道路交通事故。街道上的伤害最为常见,其次是家中的伤害。最近,伊朗设计并制定了几项伤害预防策略,希望这些策略可能有助于减轻伊朗儿童伤害的负担。
