Abstract:
OBJECTIVES:To determine the magnitude and causes of unintentional burn injuries attributed to hot objects or substances among children aged birth to 4 years in the United States. METHODS:Data were obtained from the National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care System. RESULTS:Annually, 78,000 infants and toddlers were treated in ambulatory care settings for injuries due to contact with a hot object or substance. Hot foods, curling irons, or clothing irons were the main causes of burns. CONCLUSIONS:Due to the varied causes of burns, a combination of health education and product design interventions are likely necessary to prevent these injuries.
