Sažetak
Cilj: analizirati podatke o rizicima i okolnostima ozljeđivanja prikupljene anketom iz prvog pilot-projekta Registra ozljeda kod djece i mladih u Splitsko-dalmatinskoj županiji (SDŽ) u razdoblju od 1. siječnja 2017. do 30. lipnja 2018. te na temelju nalaza ukazati na moguće mjere prevencije. Ispitanici i metode: Podatci o rizicima i okolnostima ozljeđivanja analizirani su za svu djecu i mlade s prebivalištem/boravištem/mjestom stanovanja na području SDŽ-a u dobi 0 – 18 godina koji su zbog ozljeda primljeni i liječeni u Kliničkom bolničkom centru Split (KBC Split) u navedenom razdoblju. Rezultati: Analizom podataka u navedenom razdoblju kod svih ispitanika utvrđeni su sljedeći rizici/okolnosti ozljeđivanja: muški spol, dobna skupina 7 – 14 godina kod oba spola, te kao najčešća mjesta ozljeđivanja: sportska dvorana/teretana i razred u zatvorenom prostoru, odnosno dvorišta i sportska/ školska/dječja igrališta na otvorenom prostoru. Većina ozljeda bila je nenamjerna (96,78% u 2017. i 98,73% u 2018.). Ozlijeđeni su u trenutku nastanka ozljede najčešće bili pod nadzorom roditelja/skrbnika (48,36% u 2017. i 39,02% u 2018.), te odgajatelja/učitelja/trenera (35,42% u 2017. i 46,87% u 2018.). Samo manji dio ozljeda bio je povezan s nasiljem (0,21% u 2017. i 0,15% u 2018.) – najčešće vršnjačkim, te s već poznatom/ dijagnosticiranom bolešću/stanjem (0,60% u 2017. i 0,39% u 2018.). Ozlijeđeni su najčešće dolazili u zdravstvenu ustanovu unutar jednog sata od nastanka ozljede (33,18% u 2017. i 27,93% u 2018.), a prva ustanova koja im je pružila zdravstvenu skrb većinom je bio KBC Split (43,54% u 2017. i 34,60% u 2018.). Kod svih ozlijeđenih u prometu (2,09% u 2017. i 1,42% u 2018.) utvrđeno je kako dio njih nije poštovao zakonsku obvezu nošenja kacige niti vezivanja sigurnosnog pojasa, a najčešće su stradavali kao biciklisti i pješaci. Zaključak: Analiza podataka iz Registra detektirala je najučestalije rizike i okolnosti ozljeđivanja, što bi moglo poslužiti kao prvi korak u razvijanju specifične strategije prevencije ozljeda na regionalnoj razini.
Summary

Aim: To analyze data on risks and circumstances of injuries collected from the first pilot project of the Registry of Injuries among Children and Adolescents in Split and Dalmatia County (SDC) in the period January 1st 2017 – June 30th 2018 and suggest possible prevention measures based on the determined findings. Respondents and methods: Data on risks and circumstances of the injuries were analyzed for all children and adolescents residing in SDC area aged 0–18 who were admitted and treated for injuries at the University Hospital Split (UHS) in the abovementioned period. Results: Data analysis identified the following injury risks: male gender, age 7–14 years in both genders, house/apartment, sports hall/gym and classroom as indoor injury sites and sports/school/children’s playgrounds as outdoor sites. Most of the injuries were unintentional (96.78% in 2017 and 98.73% in
2018), and at the injury occurrence, the respondents were commonly supervised by parents/guardians (48.36% in 2017 and 39.02% in 2018) or educators/teachers/coaches (35.42% in 2017 and 46.87% in 2018). Only a small proportion of the injuries was related to violence (0.21% in 2017 and 0.15% in 2018), commonly by peers, and to an already known/diagnosed disease/condition (0.60% in 2017 and 0.39% in 2018). Injured respondents commonly visited a health facility within one hour of the injury occurrence (33.18% in 2017 and 27.93% in 2018), and the first facility providing healthcare was UHS (43.54% in 2017 and 34.60% in 2018). Among all
traffic injured respondents (2.09% in 2017 and 1.42% in 2018), it was determined that legal obligation to wear a helmet or fasten a seat belt was not followed by a part of them, while the most common victims were cyclists and pedestrians. Conclusion: The analysis of the Registry data detected the most frequent risks and circumstances of injuries to be used as a basis for developing a specific injury prevention strategy at the regional level.
