abstract="CLINICIAN'S CAPSULE What is known about the topic? Injuries from non-powder firearms are common and potentially life-altering. The Canadian Pediatric Society urges stricter controls on non-powder guns. What did this study ask? What are the Canadian contextual trends in paediatric firearm injuries? What did this study find? In this study, the rate of paediatric firearm injuries was stable from 2006 to 2013. Eye injuries inflicted by non-powder firearms were most common. Most firearm injuries occurred through recreation and sport. Why does this study matter to clinicians? Parents who receive physician counselling about firearm safety report change in practice. This study highlights settings/individuals that may be appropriate targets for intervention.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
