abstract="OBJECTIVES: To provide precise information about child injuries, intended to promote preventive actions, in keeping with the general pattern of a Safe Community program implemented in Boulogne-Billancourt (France) since 1997. METHODS: Information about children under 16 injured in the city of Boulogne-Billancourt and its surroundings, are extracted in a database. DISCUSSION: The Boulogne-Billancourt database is the first permanent and specific childhood injury surveillance system in France integrated in a &quot;Safe Community&quot;. It may constitute an &quot;alarm system&quot; by allowing rapid implementation of preventive action. The final evaluation of the collected data will be performed at the end of the program (after five years).",
