The education, engineering and enforcement (3 E's) approach to injury prevention is grounded in assumptions that it is effective for everyone; however, evidence demonstrates that it fails to consider opportunities for all populations to experience safe and injury-free lives. In this way, the 3 E's approach does not support health equity in the injury prevention field. In this brief report, we argue that a fourth E, equity, must also be used with the 3 E's approach to injury prevention.
教育、工程和执法(3E)预防伤害方法的基本假设是它对所有人都有效;然而,有证据表明,该方法没有考虑到让所有人群都有机会过上安全无伤害的生活。在这种情况下,3E 方法在伤害预防领域不能支持健康公平。在这份简短的报告中,我们认为,在预防伤害方面,也必须将第四个 E(公平)与 3E 方法结合使用。
