For the Safety of Canadian Children and Youth: From Injury Data to Preventive Measures

Description

The goals of this book are to present a profile of injuries in children and youth under the age of 20, based on data from Statistics Canada and from the Canadian Hospitals Injury Reporting & Prevention Program, and to suggest opportunities for preventive action. The first two chapters present an overall analysis of injuries. The other chapters are organized by subject, each devoted to a single category of injuries. In addition, three general profiles present an overview of injuries related to motor vehicles and other road vehicles, those related to sports and recreation activities, and injuries occurring in the residential environment. Each thematic chapter contains three major categories of information: a profile of deaths and hospitalizations, an overview of the circumstances surrounding the injuries (with a focus on information particular to the Canadian context), and opportunities for action, including research priorities and preventive measures chosen according to the Canadian context.
