Pages

  135-144

Abstract

 Background: Accidents and Injuries are the leading cause of Childhood morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to investigate the Incidences of different causes of Accidents in Children under 6 years old. Methods: This population-based cross-sectional study was carried out in one year (2016-2017) on a sample of 6000 Children in Southern Iran with a multistage sampling method using a standard checklist for comprehensive Child health monitoring. Results: The annual Incidence rate of Accidents was 16% and the mean age of accident victims was 2. 5± 1. 5 years. Of these, 17. 3% and 14. 8% were male and female, respectively. 25% of the Children suffered from more than one accident. The most common causes of Accidents were burns (16%), falls (14%), and Accidents involving objects (10%). In multivariate analysis, a higher number of male Children in the family and lower Child age significantly increased the likelihood of Accidents (p less than 0. 05). Conclusions: This study was a direct survey of the population, and showed that the Incidence rate of Accidents in Children in southern Iran was in line with that of other regions of Iran, but less than the world average. There was no significant difference in accident etiology and only trends in etiology were found compared to studies using existing data.
