Between 1980 and 1985, 76 children from birth to 16 years of age were reported to have fallen out of a bed, crib, or chair while in our hospital; 75% of the incidents occurred in children from birth to 5 years of age. The height of falls ranged from 1 to 3 ft. Most of the injuries were minor (scalp hematoma and facial lacerations). Our data indicate that severe head, neck, spine, and extremity injuries are extremely rare when children fall out of hospital beds. Child abuse should be suspected and ruled out when a child is seen with severe injury from a reported "fall at home."
1980年至1985年间，据报告有76名出生至16岁的儿童在我院期间从床上、婴儿床或椅子上摔落；75%的事件发生在出生至5岁的儿童中。跌落高度为1至3英尺。大多数损伤较轻（头皮血肿和面部撕裂伤）。我们的数据表明，儿童从医院病床摔落时，严重的头部、颈部、脊柱和四肢损伤极为罕见。当儿童因报告的“在家摔倒”而出现严重损伤时，应怀疑并排除虐待儿童的情况。
