ABSTRACT
Over a 9 months period, 394 cases of injuries among 0 to 15 year-old children were recorded in the pediatrics department of a general hospital. This included traffic accidents, falls, and blows. There was a male prevalence (59,4%), and a maximum frequency in the afternoon (14-17 h) and during the summer holidays (July and August). Seventy per cent of the children were seen in the emergency ward within 3 hours following the injury. Traffic accidents were mostly related to bike accidents. The incidence of injuries among 0-15 year old children appears to be 90 for every 1,000 children in ambulatory medicine, 30 for 1,000 in emergency wards and 8,5 for 1,000 in the pediatrics wards with hospitalization lasting longer than 24 hours. From our study, the cost of the hospitalized children has been evaluated at 2,5 MF for one year in our district.
