BACKGROUND
Epidemiologic features of unintentional injuries among children in rural China are unknown.
METHODS
Using a stratified sampling method, we conducted a retrospective study of injury reports over a year-long period. Structured oral questionnaires were administered to parents of 2551 children ages 0 to 14.
RESULTS
The annual incidence of unintentional injuries was 15.6%, with boys (16.7%) having a slightly higher rate than girls (14.5%; p greater than .05). The four leading causes of injury for both genders were falls (5.1% annual incidence), burns (2.9%), animal-related injuries (1.7%), and traffic injuries (1.6%).
CONCLUSIONS
Unintentional injuries have substantial negative effects on children and their families. In rural PuCheng, China, the incidence of unintentional injury among children is extremely high compared to other regions of the world. The types of injuries incurred are somewhat different from those reported in other geographic areas. Injury prevention programs targeting the issues specific to this region, and similar rural regions of China, are needed.
背景
中国农村儿童意外伤害的流行病学特征尚不清楚。
方法
我们采用分层抽样方法，对长达一年的伤害报告进行了回顾性研究。对2551名0至14岁儿童的家长进行了结构化口头问卷调查。
结果
意外伤害的年发病率为15.6%，男孩（16.7%）的发病率略高于女孩（14.5%；p大于0.05）。男女伤害的四大主要原因是跌倒（年发病率5.1%）、烧伤（2.9%）、动物相关伤害（1.7%）和交通伤害（1.6%）。
结论
意外伤害对儿童及其家庭有重大负面影响。在中国农村蒲城，儿童意外伤害的发病率与世界其他地区相比极高。所发生的伤害类型与其他地理区域报告的有所不同。需要针对该地区以及中国类似农村地区的特定问题制定伤害预防计划。
