Efforts to promote the use of infant car seats through health education techniques have been disappointing when strict criteria for evaluation are used. Low-income families were targeted and were provided with educational sessions in the prenatal, postdelivery , and infant follow-up periods. Free car seats were given to 179 clients. Base-line and follow-up observations were performed at 4 months after delivery. The proportion of correctly restrained infants increased from 9% to 38%. The number of infants who were lap held decreased from 38% to 18%. The proportion of clients who had an approved car seat but who were using it incorrectly increased from 11% to 23%.
当采用严格的评估标准时，通过健康教育手段来推广婴儿汽车安全座椅使用的努力一直令人失望。针对低收入家庭，在产前、产后及婴儿随访阶段为他们提供了教育课程。向179位客户发放了免费的汽车安全座椅。在分娩后4个月进行了基线和随访观察。正确使用约束装置的婴儿比例从9%上升到了38%。由大人抱着坐在腿上的婴儿数量从38%降至18%。拥有经批准的汽车安全座椅但使用不当的客户比例从11%增至23%。
