Book Synopsis Child Injury and the Determinants of Health by : Amy Peden
Download or read book Child Injury and the Determinants of Health written by Amy Peden and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2021-03-23 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The World Health Organization recognizes that injuries are the leading cause of death and disability to children after their first birthday. There is also high morbidity associated with injuries sustained in childhood, often affecting people for the rest of their lives. For every child who dies from injury, there are several thousand who require medical care, many who live with varying degrees of disability. Children and adolescents (0–19 years of age) are at increased risk of mortality and morbidity due to injuries such as road traffic, burns, falls, poisoning, drowning, self-harm and interpersonal violence. There are proven ways to prevent many child injuries, yet there are still gaps in our knowledge. By understanding the impact of determinants of health (i.e., the social and economic environment, the physical environment and a person’s individual characteristics and behaviors), effective prevention interventions can be designed and implemented, with a high return on investment. This Special Issue covers an eclectic range of studies, the common goal of which is to reduce the global burden of child injury-related mortality and morbidity.

Book Synopsis World Report on Child Injury Prevention by : M. M. Peden
Download or read book World Report on Child Injury Prevention written by M. M. Peden and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2008 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Child injuries are largely absent from child survival initiatives presently on the global agenda. Through this report, the World Health Organization, the United Nations Children's Fund and many partners have set out to elevate child injury to a priority for the global public health and development communities. It should be seen as a complement to the UN Secretary-General's study on violence against children released in late 2006 (that report addressed violence-related or intentional injuries). Both reports suggest that child injury and violence prevention programs need to be integrated into child survival and other broad strategies focused on improving the lives of children. Evidence demonstrates the dramatic successes in child injury prevention in countries which have made a concerted effort. These results make a case for increasing investments in human resources and institutional capacities. Implementing proven interventions could save more than a thousand children's lives a day.--p. vii.

Download or read book Farm Machinery Injury written by Arthur Athanasiov and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Injury on farms and its prevention is a key issue for Australian agriculture and horticulture industries, and the common causes of farm injury have been well documented in reports and papers. This report is one of a series of reports of in depth investigations into preventable risk factors associated with operation of specific items of farm machinery. Grain and feed augers are found on many farms, and may in constant or frequent use in the grains and livestock industries. This report establishes that most augers in use on farms have significant safety risks and a multifaceted approach to reducing risk of death and serious injury has been recommended.
Book Synopsis A Story of Impact by : National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
Download or read book A Story of Impact written by National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 2 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Farms have been recognized as a hazardous environment for adults and youth. Youth living on farms are not only exposed to hazards while working, but also by merely residing on the farm. An estimated 1.03 million children and adolescents younger than 20 years of age resided on farms in 2010, with 15,011 youth injured on farms. On average, 113 youth die annually from farm-related injuries (1995-2002). Of the leading sources of fatal injuries to youth on U.S. farms, 23% involved machinery (includes tractors), 19% involved motor vehicles (includes all-terrain vehicles [ATVs]), and 16% were due to drowning. At the request of farm parents seeking guidance in assigning appropriate work to youth, the National Children's Center for Rural and Agricultural Health and Safety created the North American Guidelines for Children's Agricultural Tasks (NAGCAT). NAGCAT was based on child development principles and matched a child's physical, mental, and psychosocial abilities with the requirements of specific farm work. The NAGCAT initiative is a model for effective public-private partnership. It was funded primarily by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH); however, continued funding, resources, and partnership with the private sector has allowed for greater awareness and dissemination of NAGCAT. Impact: A randomized control trial was conducted on farms in central New York State to determine NAGCAT's efficacy in reducing childhood agricultural injuries. Active dissemination of NAGCAT to farm families over a one year period created several changes on the farm. Intervention farms made more safety-related changes than did control farms. In the 0 to 19 year age group, the amount of time that lapsed before occurrence of a NAGCAT-preventable injury was significantly longer for the intervention than the control group. Incidence of NAGCAT-preventable injuries decreased by half among seven to 19 year-olds on intervention farms where active dissemination of NAGCAT occurred versus control farms. Lastly, NAGCAT appeared to affect intermediate outcomes, such as setting limits on the amount of time a child could perform work between breaks, delaying initiation of ATV-use, and making more safety-related changes on the farm. Between 1998 and 2009, work-related injury rates among youth living on farms have declined. Several factors may have contributed to this decrease including: National Children's Center initiatives to establish guidelines, most notably NAGCAT and Creating Safe Play Areas on Farms; Congressional approval and funding of the National Action Plan for Childhood Agricultural Injury Prevention; leadership and funding by NIOSH; high-quality research that provided evidence of strengths and limitations of various interventions and policies; private donations to organizations such as Farm Safety 4 Just Kids and Progressive Agriculture Foundation for community-based safety programs; campaigns supported by media coverage; and a willingness of farm owners and parents to bury unsafe traditions and adopt new practices involving youth workers. Development, dissemination, and implementation of NAGCAT has demonstrated its effectiveness in reducing child agricultural injuries. However, the number of youth injuries and fatalities on farms continues to be a public health concern. A multi-faceted prevention strategy that includes use of NAGCAT is recommended as the next step in further reducing childhood agricultural injuries." - NIOSHTIC-2
