| Abstrakt | Injuries as one of the biggest public health problems can be effectively prevented. They have equal epidemiologic parameters as infectious diseases and can be prevented with changing or elimination of agens and vector, alteration of host susceptibility or changing of environment. Some preventive strategies and main approaches for their realization are presented (technological alterations, education and legislation) and the role of parents, health workers, pedagogical workers in child day care centers, etc. in prevention of injuries in preschool children are defined. Leading role at coordination of activities for the prevention of injuries in children must be assumed by public health institutions on state and regional level. In Slovenia, the prevention of injuries in children is not adequately developed, it is dispersed, non systematic and therefore also rather ineffective. An intersectorally and interdisciplinary planned national programme for safety should be adopted on the state level, an important part of which will be the programme for the prevention of injuries in preschool children | |
| Izvleček | Poškodbe, ki so eden največjih javnozdravstvenih problemov pri pedšolskih otrocih, je mogoče učinkovito preprečevati. Poškodbe imajo enake epidemiološke parametre kot infekcijske bolezni in jih lahko preprečujemo s spreminjanjem ali eliminiranjem agensa in vektorja, spreminjanjem dovzetnosti gostitelja ali spreminjanjem okolja. Avtorica predstavlja nekatere preventivne strategije in poglavitne pristope pri uresničevanju le-teh (tehnološke spremembe, izobraževanje in zakonodaja) ter opredeljuje vlogo staršev, zdravstvenih delavcev, pedagoških delavcev v vzgojno-varstvenih organizacijah itd. pri preprečevanju poškodb predšolskih otrok. Javnozdravstvene institucije na državni in regijski ravni morajo prevzeti vodilno vlogo pri koordiniranju aktivnosti za preprečevanje poškodb otrok. V Sloveniji je preprečevanje poškodb pri otrocih slabo razvito, nesistematično in zato tudi dokaj neučinkovito. Na državni ravni je potrebno sprejeti medsektorsko in interdisciplinarno zasnovan nacionalni program za varnost, katerega pomemben del bo program za preprečevanje poškodb pri predšolskih otrocih. | |
