The Pediatric Trauma Program
• Unintentional injury remains the #1 killer of children age 14 and under in the U.S.
• Unintentional injury kills more children than all other childhood diseases combined
• Each year in the U.S., 9,000 families lose a child because of a preventable injury
• 90% of these injuries could be prevented!
2013 SLP May Board
Injuries are not inevitable; they are preventable.
Injuries Are No Accident
Child Injuries Still Leading Cause of Death for Children
• "Every 4 seconds, a child is treated for an injury in the emergency department, and every hour, a child dies as a result of an injury."
• Most common hazards to children: car crashes, suffocation, drowning, poisoning, fires, and falls
• CDC’s National Action Plan: http://www.cdc.gov/safechild/nap/overviews/index.html
PTP is More Than Just Fundraising!
• Sponsor a bicycle rodeo, child safety fair or child safety seat inspection event
