          RESUMEN

          Fundamentos:

          Las lesiones no intencionadas son la primera causa de morbimortalidad infantil, los Servicios de Urgencias pueden ser un buen lugar para incidir en su prevención, orientando y anticipando situaciones de riesgo. El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar en Urgencias el conocimiento y la actitud de los padres-cuidadores de los niños de uno a cuatro años en seguridad infantil y valorar si existen diferencias en función de si el niño ha sufrido una lesión no intencionada (LNI) o no.

          Métodos:

          Estudio descriptivo transversal a través de encuestas realizado en un Servicio de Urgencias durante 44 días escogidos aleatoriamente entre dos periodos (10/2015-01/2016 y 10/2016-01/2017). Se encuestó a los padres-cuidadores de los niños entre uno y cuatro años. Por cada niño con LNI (GRUPO1) se incluyeron dos con otro motivo de consulta (GRUPO2). Se utilizó la encuesta de Seguridad de Framingham. Se consideró que el conocimiento y actitud de los padres-cuidadores era adecuado si la proporción de respuestas correctas fue≥75%. Se analizaron los datos con el programa estadístico SPSS v 22.0 para Windows.

          Resultados:

          Respondieron a la encuesta 499 padres-cuidadores; 170 pertenecían al GRUPO1 y 329 al GRUPO2. La mediana de respuestas correctas fue de 27/39(69,2%) en ambos grupos. Las variables donde se detectaron más respuestas incorrectas fueron: falta de seguridad frente a un incendio (409;82%) y ausencia de rejas en las ventanas (402;80,6%). Cuarenta y cinco (26,5%) padres-cuidadores del GRUPO1 y 94(28,6%) del GRUPO2 contestaron correctamente≥75% a las preguntas ( p=0,620); por edad de los niños, el 34,8% de los padres-cuidadores de los de un año, el 26,9% de los de dos, el 26,8% de los de tres y el 17,9% de los de cuatro ( p=0,007).

          Conclusiones:

          El conocimiento de las familias para prevenir LNI fue bajo, tanto si éste era o no, el motivo de consulta. Se detectó una relajación en las medidas de seguridad al aumentar la autonomía de los niños.

          ABSTRACT

          Background:

          Unintentional injuries are the leading cause of child morbidity and mortality, Emergency Services can be a good place to influence their prevention, guiding and anticipating risk situations. The objective of this work was to determine the knowledge and attitude of parents-caregivers of children from one to four years old about child safety. We evaluate if there are differences according the consultation was for unintentional injury or not.

          Methods:

          Study of cross-sectional surveys performed in an Emergency Health Service during 44 days randomly chosen between two periods (10 / 2015 - 01 / 2016 and 10 / 2016 - 01 / 2017). The parents-caregivers of children between one and four years old were surveyed. For each child with unintentional injury (GROUP1) two other children were included with another reason of consultation (GROUP2). The Framingham Security Survey was used. It was considered that the knowledge and attitude of the parents-caregivers was adequate if the proportion of correct answers was ≥75%. The data was analyzed with the statistical program SPSS v 22.0 for Windows.

          Results:

          499 parents-caregivers responded to the survey; 170 belonged to GROUP1 and 329 belonged to GROUP2. The median of correct answers was 27/39 (69.2%) in both groups. The variables where more incorrect answers were detected were: lack of security in front of a fire (409, 82%) and absence of window bars (402, 80.6%). Forty-five (26.5%) parents-caregivers of GROUP1 and 94 (28.6%) of GROUP2 answered correctly≥75% of the questions (p = 0.620); According to the age of children, 34.8% of parents-caregivers of children aged one year, 26.9% of the one aged two years, 26.8% of the ones aged three years and 17.9% of the ones aged four years (p = 0.007) answered correctly the questions.

          Conclusions:

          The knowledge of families to prevent unintentional injuries was low, whether or not it was the reason for consultation. A relaxation in the security measures was detected when increasing the autonomy of the children.

          Parental perceptions of barriers and facilitators to preventing child unintentional injuries within the home: a qualitative study

          Background Childhood unintentional injury represents an important global health problem. Most of these injuries occur at home, and many are preventable. The main aim of this study was to identify key facilitators and barriers for parents in keeping their children safe from unintentional injury within their homes. A further aim was to develop an understanding of parents’ perceptions of what might help them to implement injury prevention activities. Methods Semi-structured interviews were conducted with sixty-four parents with a child aged less than five years at parent’s homes. Interview data was transcribed verbatim, and thematic analysis was undertaken. This was a Multi-centre qualitative study conducted in four study centres in England (Nottingham, Bristol, Norwich and Newcastle). Results Barriers to injury prevention included parents’ not anticipating injury risks nor the consequences of some risk-taking behaviours, a perception that some injuries were an inevitable part of child development, interrupted supervision due to distractions, maternal fatigue and the presence of older siblings, difficulties in adapting homes, unreliability and cost of safety equipment and provision of safety information later than needed in relation to child age and development. Facilitators for injury prevention included parental supervision and teaching children about injury risks. This included parents’ allowing children to learn about injury risks through controlled risk taking, using “safety rules” and supervising children to ensure that safety rules were adhered to. Adapting the home by installing safety equipment or removing hazards were also key facilitators. Some parents felt that learning about injury events through other parents’ experiences may help parents anticipate injury risks. Conclusions There are a range of barriers to, and facilitators for parents undertaking injury prevention that would be addressable during the design of home safety interventions. Addressing these in future studies may increase the effectiveness of interventions.

            Childhood injury prevention counseling in primary care settings: a critical review of the literature.

            The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) believes that health education, through office-based counseling, can contribute to childhood injury prevention. This report presents the results of a critical review of the scientific literature on the effectiveness of primary care-based counseling to prevent childhood unintentional injury. A panel selected from the AAP Committee and the AAP Section on Injury and Poison Prevention searched the English-language scientific literature for all articles about childhood unintentional injury prevention counseling. A standardized format was developed to record data on each study. Two members of the panel independently reviewed each article. Articles that were original reports and in which unintentional injury prevention counseling took place in a primary care setting were included. Articles were encoded and analyzed by computer and then grouped by quality of evidence using the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) method of categorizing results of medical care evaluation. Articles were rated by strength of study design in order to compare studies within each USPSTF group. Twenty articles met the criteria for inclusion. Of these, 18 showed positive effects of injury prevention counseling including five randomized/controlled, 10 non-randomized/controlled, two multiple time series, and one descriptive study. In 15 of the positive studies, physicians performed the counseling. Positive outcomes as measured by increased knowledge, improved behavior, or decreased injury occurrence were reported for both motor vehicle and non-motor vehicle injuries. The literature review supports the recommendation of the AAP to include injury prevention counseling as part of routine health supervision. This recommendation has implications for health care reimbursement and care content.

              Preventing childhood unintentional injuries--what works? A literature review.

              The aim of this paper is to report on a systematic review of the world literature to provide information about the most effective forms of health promotion interventions to reduce childhood (0-14 years) unintentional injuries. The findings are of relevance to policy makers at a local or national level, to practitioners and researchers. The relevant literature has been identified through the use of electronic databases, hand searching of journals, scanning reference lists, and consultation with key informants. Examples of interventions that have been effective in reducing injury include: bicycle helmet legislation, area wide traffic calming measures, child safety restraint legislation, child resistant containers to prevent poisoning, and window bars to prevent falls. Interventions effective in changing behaviour include bicycle helmet education and legislation, child restraint legislation, child restraint loan schemes, child restraint educational campaigns, pedestrian education aimed at the child/parent, provision of smoke detectors, and parent education on home hazard reduction. For the community based campaigns, the key to success has been the sustained use of surveillance systems, the commitment of interagency cooperation and the time needed to develop networks and implement a range of interventions. Education, environmental modification and legislation all have a part to play and their effect in combination is important. The design of evaluations in injury prevention needs to be improved so that more reliable evidence can be obtained. Better information is needed on process, so that successful strategies can be replicated elsewhere. There is also a need for literature reviews on effectiveness to be updated regularly and for their findings to be widely disseminated to policy makers, researchers, and practitioners.
