This study investigates the epidemiology of injuries associated with toys among US children by analyzing data from the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System. During 1990-2011, an estimated 3278073 (95% confidence interval = 2762281-3793865) children <18 years old were treated in US emergency departments for toy-related injuries, averaging 149003 cases annually. The annual injury rate per 10000 children increased significantly by 39.9% from 18.88 in 1990 to 26.42 in 2011. The number and rate of injuries peaked at age 2 years; 63.4% of patients were male; and 80.3% of injuries occurred at home. Ride-on toys accounted for 34.9% of injuries and 42.5% of hospital admissions. This study is the first to comprehensively investigate toy-related injuries among children using a nationally representative data set. The increasing number and rate of toy-related injuries to children, especially those associated with ride-on toys, underscore the need for increased efforts to prevent these injuries.
本研究通过分析国家电子伤害监测系统的数据，调查了美国儿童中与玩具相关伤害的流行病学情况。在1990年至2011年期间，估计有3278073名（95%置信区间 = 2762281 - 3793865）18岁以下儿童因与玩具相关的伤害在美国急诊科接受治疗，平均每年有149003例。每10000名儿童的年伤害率从1990年的18.88显著上升39.9%，至2011年达到26.42。伤害数量和发生率在2岁时达到峰值；63.4%的患者为男性；80.3%的伤害发生在家中。乘骑玩具导致的伤害占34.9%，住院占42.5%。本研究首次使用具有全国代表性的数据集全面调查儿童中与玩具相关的伤害。儿童与玩具相关伤害的数量和发生率不断上升，尤其是与乘骑玩具相关的伤害，凸显了加大预防这些伤害力度的必要性。
