This study was conducted at a level II Pediatric Trauma Center to assess the perceptions, safety behaviors, and learning needs of parents who brought their children to the emergency department.
Surveys were distributed in the emergency department, and 412 parents/caretakers responded. A descriptive design provided the framework for data analysis.
A profile of caretakers of children in three age groups (1 to 4, 5 to 12, and 13 to 15 years) emerged. Whereas most parents and older children knew how to call 911, only half of the parents knew child CPR. Parents tended to underestimate their children's risks for motor vehicle-related and immersion injuries and were more concerned about kidnapping and assault. Less than half of the parents believed that most injuries can be prevented. Learning needs were indicated by 34% of parents, and CPR was mentioned most frequently. Parents' desires for learning tended to focus on care after injuries happened.
Health professionals need to spend more time teaching parents about the link between child development and risks for injury, to emphasize prevention. Interventions based on study results include the hospital Safety Helmet Discharge Plan.
本研究在一家二级儿科创伤中心开展,旨在评估带孩子前往急诊科的家长的认知、安全行为及学习需求。
在急诊科发放调查问卷,412名家长/看护人进行了回应。描述性设计为数据分析提供了框架。
呈现了三个年龄组(1至4岁、5至12岁和13至15岁)儿童看护人的概况。虽然大多数家长和大龄儿童知道如何拨打911,但只有一半的家长了解儿童心肺复苏术。家长往往低估孩子在机动车相关伤害和溺水伤害方面的风险,而更担心绑架和袭击。不到一半的家长认为大多数伤害是可以预防的。34%的家长表示有学习需求,其中心肺复苏术被提及的频率最高。家长的学习愿望往往集中在受伤后的护理方面。
卫生专业人员需要花更多时间向家长传授儿童发育与伤害风险之间的联系,以强调预防。基于研究结果的干预措施包括医院安全头盔出院计划。
