Abstract

A significant increase of accidents in children was the cause to look into the reasons. 516 children have been registered. We could show that the share of the severe injured patients was more than on an average. Over 42% of the injuries concerned the head and face, about a third the lower extremities and a quart the upper extremities. Some cases were demonstrated and discussed with state and development after the accident. The major part of the children had an accident on the way to school and back home. So the explanation of the dangers of the road will be extremely effective in prevention of road accidents.
