预防儿童乘客车内伤害的研究进展

汽车上的安全措施如安全带和气囊等都是依据成人设计的,因此儿童使用专为成人设计的安全设施只会增加受伤的可能.研究发现交通事故中坐在车内前排不使用任何约束装置的儿童受伤风险最高,坐在后排使用合适约束装置的儿童受伤风险最小.针对儿童家庭和家长的教育是实施立法和推广儿童约束装置使用的基础,但需要和其他方法或手段结合干预才可能有效.立法是预防儿童乘客伤害的一种最有力工具,但是如何在发展中国家一贯地实施和有力地执行这些法律更加重要.

Progress of research on the prophylaxis of child passenger injury

Seat belts and air bags are all designed according to adult, so which used by children will only increase their injury. Children who sitting in the front row do not use any restraint devices have the highest risk in the car accident,but who sat in the back with the appropriate child restraint devices only have the low risk. Education for families and parents that is basics of implementing legislation and promoting child restraint devices, but which need to integrate other method or means of effective intervention is possible. Legislation is one of the most powerful tool to prevent child passenger injury, but how to implement and enforce these laws are more important in developing countries.
