Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BACKGROUND: Motor vehicle-related injuries are the leading cause of death among children, adolescents, and young adults ages 3-33 years, and are a major cause for other age groups. Despite the proven efficacy of occupant restraint devices and reducing drinking and driving behaviors in preventing motor vehicle occupant injuries (MVOI), a significant proportion of those killed are either unrestrained or using alcohol. Restraint use for children younger than 9 years is further complicated by the need to properly use age- and weight-appropriate child safety seats or belt-positioning booster seats and children under 13 years should ride in the rear of the vehicle. PURPOSE: This evidence synthesis examines the evidence for the benefits and harms of counseling primary care patients to use age- and weight-appropriate motor vehicle occupant restraints and to reduce alcohol-related driving or riding behavior. DATA SOURCES: We developed an analytic framework and four key questions to represent the logical evidence connecting primary care behavioral counseling (BC) interventions to increase correct age- and weight- appropriate restraint use with reduced motor vehicle occupant injuries (MVOI). The framework also represented the evidence connecting primary care BC interventions to reduce alcohol-related driving or riding with MVOI. We searched Medline, Cochrane Central Registry of Controlled Trials, Cochrane Database of systematic Reviews, PsycINFO, CINAHL, and Traffic Research Information Service from 1992 to July 2005. Separate literature search strategies were developed for interventions targeting correct use of motor vehicle occupant restraints, alcohol-related driving or riding behaviors, and counseling-related harms. We also reviewed trials included in seven recent systematic evidence reviews, contacted experts, and checked bibliographies from selected trials. We examined 1289 abstracts and 155 full-text articles. STUDY SELECTION: We included fair-to-good quality research (according to USPSTF criteria), in all age groups (including expecting parents during pregnancy), that evaluated interventions for general primary care populations and were conducted in the following settings: (1) primary care, (2) feasible for conducting in primary care setting, (3) peripartum inpatient hospitalization, (4) and settings feasible for referral from primary care. For all key questions, we considered evidence published in English and conducted in the USA or other similarly developed countries, from the following study designs: randomized clinical trials (RCTs), controlled clinical trials (CCTs), and comparative observational research designs. DATA EXTRACTION: One reviewer abstracted relevant information from each included article into standardized evidence tables, and a second reviewer checked key elements. Two reviewers graded the quality of each article using USPSTF criteria. Excluded articles were listed in tables, along with the primary reason(s) for exclusion. DATA SYNTHESIS: One fair-quality, group-level CCT reported a reduction in MVOI among children up to age five in an intervention community compared to a control community (39.2 fewer injuries per 10,000 children per year during the intervention period). This study evaluated counseling to increase restraint use in inpatient and primary care settings as part of a multi-faceted, community-wide approach to reducing MVOI and other injuries. Due to the nature of the trial, the impact of the clinical component cannot be separately determined, although MVOI strategies were not strongly addressed elsewhere in the community interventions. In the same study, rates of motor-vehicle restraint use were not statistically different between groups, although the timing of the measurement could explain this discrepancy. Six RCTs and seven CCTs (all fair or fair/poor quality) evaluated counseling parents of infants or children up to five years of age or pregnant women. Evidence from studies evaluating counseling in the primary care setting provide fair evidence of an increase in restraint use at two months and evidence of diminished effects at later time points, often due to increased use in the control group at later time points. Two CCTs (fair and fair/poor quality) evaluating education delivered to parents in the peri-partum hospitalization also included an infant safety seat distribution program and found a large increase in restraint use (absolute difference 47% to 67% at discharge or nine months follow-up), but evidence from a fair quality CCT found no increase. Evidence from primary care referable settings and from an inpatient education-only study was mixed. One fair/poor-quality RCT that evaluated booster seat education by a certified car seat technician in an emergency department setting provided fair/poor overall evidence of a large increase in use one month after the intervention among families that received education and a free booster seat. One fair-quality CCT that evaluated pediatrician-delivered counseling for children or adolescents to wear seat belts provide fair evidence of increased use immediately after the intervention. A fair-quality, large RCT addressing fifth and sixth graders (about three-quarters of whom were using seat-belts at baseline), however, demonstrated no increased use at 12-36 months follow-up during an office-based injury prevention intervention. Only one trial evaluated counseling adults to wear seat belts and this study found no difference between intervention and control groups six months after the intervention. We identified no trials that evaluated counseling primary care patients to reduce drinking and driving or to avoid riding with impaired drivers, and no trials that evaluated the harms of MVOI-related BC interventions. CONCLUSIONS: Primary care behavioral counseling interventions to increase correct age- and weight-appropriate restraint use may increase short-term use, or correct use, of restraints but effects may diminish by longer term follow-up. Effective interventions targeting infants or children included education and demonstrations of correct use, with or without child safety seat distribution programs, and were tested during a time of growing cultural support and increasing regulatory requirements for child safety restraint use. Data from primary care studies were limited for interventions to increase use of belt-positioning booster seats for children ages four-eight years, an area where interventions are needed due to lower use and gaps in current child safety seat legislation. No primary care interventions targeting young drivers aged 16-24 years, a known high-risk group, were available. Data to address BC interventions for adults was quite limited, although current data suggests usage rates are quite high and supported by a strong regulatory environment. Across age groups, there was a lack of recent or good-quality trials for any MVOI-related safety behaviors. Many of the available studies were conducted when restraint use was less common and the studies that were conducted in populations with higher baseline use did not show improvements in restraint use, suggesting a possible ceiling effect. Misuse of child safety restraints remains common and diminishes their effectiveness. Extrapolating from existing evidence, interventions to counsel parents on appropriate correct use of child safety seats (including booster seats) may be beneficial, with potential harms unlikely and not supported by data.

Book excerpt: The National Transportation Safety Board examined the issue of child motor vehicle passenger protection through a series of 53 detailed investigations of accidents involving infants and small children, restrained and unrestrained; through a series of three regional public hearings; and through a review of the child passenger protection laws that had been enacted by 40 States and the District of Columbia as of mid-1983. The report uses accident cases to highlight crash consequences to unrestrained children and the often dramatic lifesaving and injury prevention benefits of child safety seats. Misuse of child safety seats is identified as a significant problem in accidents, and a need for special efforts to combat the misuse problem is identified. The report identifies limitations and loopholes in child passenger protection laws and concludes that a major problem is that virtually none of the 41 laws were designed to foster the transition of children from safety seat use to safety belt use. The report also calls attention to the need to implement and enforce child passenger protection laws effectively, and identifies areas for further research. Finally, the report identifies major elements for inclusion in effective child passenger protection laws.

Book excerpt: Everyone who has children knows just how easily they can get hurt. Each year, for example, approximately 9,000 infants suffer injuries related to their high chairs. Thousands more are poisoned by common household substances. In total, more than 25 million children are injured annually, and more than 12,000 kids under the age of 14 succumb to their injuries. What makes these incidents even more tragic is that they can be prevented--if only parents knew how. Well, now they will. Written by an emergency physician, Child Safe is a practical parenting book that will help keep babies and young children out of trouble. It will help parents recognize the dangers to kids and provide concrete ways of preventing specific injuries. Child Safe is the most complete, organized, and parent-friendly child-safety book ever written for the general public. It addresses the most pressing safety issues from birth to age 14, issues that change dramatically as a child grows up. This invaluable guide for parents, grandparents, teachers, childcare workers, and baby-sitters has the information to prevent millions of childhood injuries. Dr. Mark Brandenburg, with his years of experience, shows how to keep your "child safe."

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.

Book Synopsis Describing the Buckle Up Program Efforts to Support Child Well-being in Oklahoma by : Christy S. Stearns
Download or read book Describing the Buckle Up Program Efforts to Support Child Well-being in Oklahoma written by Christy S. Stearns and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In 1997 Safe Kids Worldwide and General Motors Corporation founded the Buckle Up program. The program trains and certifies individuals to become service providers whose job is to obtain the knowledge and skills on the proper techniques to install safety seats for children, and how to share that knowledge with families. Buckle Up is an important program since the leading cause of death among children ages 2 to 14 is in a motor vehicle crash. Trainings, car seat checkup events, and advocacy influence the way the environment affects child passenger safety. Advocacy opens the doors for strengthening the need to update laws since motor vehicle crashes continue to lead as a primary cause of death in children. The research will take a descriptive approach to review and compile available data to determine any associations between the Buckle Up program and the number of injuries and fatalities in Oklahoma between 2007 and 2011. Research will also utilize Urie Bronfenbrenner's Human Ecology Theory to examine hoe the Buckle Up program has been involved in the environment. Data were collected and reviewed by a Child Passenger Safety Technician and Instructor, active in the field since 2007. The analysis was made from a non-biased perspective with interest in understanding how educational efforts were contributing to the Oklahoma child occupant outcomes."--Abstract.
