Abstract: (3848 Views) |
Child safety seat mishandle is still a concern. To prevent serious injuries and death from automotive accidents, correct use of car seats for small children is essential. Failure to use a car seat properly can contribute to serious injury or death of a child. Recent studies have shown that child safety seats can tolerate the impact of a minor crash without affecting their future performance. Fatal or disable injuries decreased by 17% when children using car seats and booster seats. Based on powerful evidence of effectiveness, the Community preventive services task force recommends car seat laws and car seat distribution plus education programs to increase restraint use and decrease injuries and deaths to child passengers. Car seat distribution plus education programs are also recommended in a more recent review for increasing restraint use. |
