Abstract

Injuries are the leading cause of death in children. Approximately 23,000 children are killed each year in the United States, and many more suffer from nonlethal injuries. This article discusses general principles of effective intervention strategies, the most serious injury categories, and practical injury prevention advice for primary care physicians.
