Purpose: To describe the use of an emergency department
(ED)-based, in-depth injury surveillance system to determine
the incidence and mechanism of preschool children injury.
Methods: We prospectively studied and registered injured
children under 7 years old, (n=5,921) whose injuries resulted
in ED treatment from August 2006 to July 2008. We upgraded
the checklist surveillance items, included place, accident
mechanism, and agent factors. The ED physicians recorded
the injury data on checklists in real time as they gave the ED
orders. The recorded data were stored in computer networks
and automatically coded, which enabled access to the raw
data sources. The statistical data were calculated in detail by
using relative frequency distribution from the raw data.
Results: A total of 29,548 injured patients visited the ED
from August 2006 to July 2008. Preschool children injuries,
except those from traffic accidents, were 5,921(20.0%). The
most common sources of injuries were from blunt trauma
(37%), slips(17%), and falls(16%). Among those admitted
to our hospital, fall injuries and inhalation of foreign body
accidents accounted for 7.6% and 7.5%, respectively. The
larger proportion of fall injuries occurred from a height of
less than 1 meter(82.2%). The frequency of injury mechanism
differed according to age: fall(35%), blunt(19%), and
burn(14%) were noted under 1 year old, compared to
blunt(34%), fall(14%), and slip(13%) from between 1 to
under 3 years of age, and blunt(37%), slip(19%), and fall
(11%) between 3 to under 7 years of age.
Conclusion: The ED-based preschool children injury surveillance
system could provide a useful and efficient method
to determine injury incidence and injury-related factors.
