Protecting children's health from the effects of environmental contamination is a public health priority. In recent years, particular care has been devoted in Italy to the study of the relationship between environmental pollutants and health during infancy. The SENTIERI Project has called attention to increases in infant mortality in National Priority Contaminated Sites (NPCSs). SENTIERI KIDS provides a blueprint for the establishment of a task force charged with establishing multi and inter-disciplinary cooperation between central and regional institutions on the subject of children's health in contaminated sites. SENTIERI KIDS introduces a multiple outcome analytical model based on updated health outcomes (mortality, cancer incidence, hospital discharges) in order to establish a permanent observation system to monitor the state of health of infants residing in contaminated areas. This will pave the way for more in-depth epidemiological enquiries on an individual basis, and support the establishment and continued monitoring of primary prevention projects. Particular attention is devoted to issues of information and communication.
保护儿童健康免受环境污染影响是公共卫生的一项优先事项。近年来,意大利特别关注婴儿期环境污染物与健康之间关系的研究。“SENTIERI项目”已提请人们注意国家重点污染场地(NPCSs)中婴儿死亡率的上升。“SENTIERI儿童项目”为成立一个特别工作组提供了蓝图,该工作组负责在中央和地区机构之间就污染场地儿童健康问题建立多学科和跨学科合作。“SENTIERI儿童项目”引入了一个基于最新健康结果(死亡率、癌症发病率、出院情况)的多结果分析模型,以便建立一个永久性观测系统,监测居住在污染地区婴儿的健康状况。这将为更深入的个体流行病学调查铺平道路,并支持初级预防项目的建立和持续监测。特别关注信息和沟通问题。
