This review article demonstrates the clear need for helmet usage in children everywhere. The lives that could be changed and the money that could be saved from needless injury and death is substantial. As physicians and community leaders, we must all do our part to ensure the safety of children. This must be done by joining or initiating a local community campaign. Physicians need to become part of this preventive effort, both with their patients and by example. Hopefully, by following the suggestions of other programs already implemented throughout the United States and working together with the community, we can substantially decrease the number of needles bicycle injuries suffered by South Carolina's children.
这篇综述文章表明，世界各地的儿童都迫切需要使用头盔。因不必要的伤害和死亡而可能改变的生命数量以及可以节省的资金数额是巨大的。作为医生和社区领袖，我们都必须尽自己的一份力量来确保儿童的安全。这必须通过参与或发起当地社区活动来实现。医生需要在与患者的沟通中以及以身作则方面成为这一预防工作的一部分。希望通过遵循美国各地已经实施的其他项目的建议，并与社区合作，我们能够大幅减少南卡罗来纳州儿童遭受的不必要的自行车伤害数量。
