The Childhood Injury Prevention Program of the Boston Department of Health and Hospitals conducted a survey of injury risk in Boston's playgrounds. A standardized checklist was used to assess a 25% sample of public playgrounds for hazards. Climbers accounted for 34% of the hazards observed and had the greatest proportion of significant hazards. The surfacing material in 100% of the playgrounds observed was unsafe. Urban children risk exposure to hazardous playground equipment frequently situated above unsafe surfacing material.
波士顿卫生与医院部的儿童伤害预防项目对波士顿游乐场的伤害风险进行了一项调查。使用一份标准化清单对25%的公共游乐场样本进行危险评估。攀爬架占观察到的危险的34%,且重大危险的比例最高。在所有观察到的游乐场中,100%的铺面材料都不安全。城市儿童经常面临暴露于位于不安全铺面材料上方的危险游乐场设备的风险。
