Abstract		Problem: Although children in Slovenia frequently die as occupants of motor vehicles, approximately 52% of them do not ride appropriately restrained. Objectives: To assess parental attitudes to transporting their newbom in a car seat, and to provide thereby an epidemiological basis of preventive programmes. Method: A cross sectional survey of 1,034 mothers was conducted in Slovene maternity hospitals. The response rate was 80%; the odds ratio (OR) was calculated with a 95% confidence interval and with a statistical significance at p = 0.05. Results: Parents said they intended to take their baby home in a carrycot (58.2%), in the group 0 infant seat (28.2%), in the group 0+ infant seat (6.8%) or on their lap (5.8%). Young mothers from 15 to 24 years of age responded 1.5 times more frequently they intended to take their baby home on their lap or using a carrycot than did older mothers (OR=1.51(1.05-2.17); p=0.03). The above mentioned manner of transporting their baby in a car was chosen by twice as many mothers with low educational level as those with higher level of education (OR=2.17 (1.46-3.25); p<0.001). Parents having more than one child responded 1.9 times more frequently they intended to borrow an infant seat than did one-child families (OR=1.92 (1.38-2.68); p<0.001). If an organized car seat rental service had been available, a child seat would have been rented by 1.9 as many parents from lower socioeconomic classes as parents with a higher socio-economic status (OR=1.87 (1.26-2.77); p=0.001). The responders suggested that an infant car seat rental programme should be implemented in maternity hospitals (38.3%) or in health care centres (23.2%). Conclusions: It is necessary to develop preventive programmes designed for young parents. A car seat rental programme would enable a larger number of parents with lower socio-economic status to transport their children appropriately restrained.
Summary		Problem: V Sloveniji otroci umirajo v prometu pogosto kot potniki v avtomobilu, vendar še vedno 52% otrok med vožnjo ni pripetih. Cilji: Oceniti stališča staršev do uporabe avtomobilskega sedeža za novorojenčke, kar bo osnova za načrtovanje preventivnih programov. Metoda: Presečna študija je bila izvedena v slovenskih porodnišnicah. V študijo je bilo zajetih 1034 mater, odzivnost je bila 80-odstotna. V univariatni analizi je bilo izračunano razmerje obetov (OR) s 95-odstotna intervalom zaupanja in statistično pomembnostjo pri p = 0.05. Rezultati: Starši nameravajo peljati novorojenčka iz porodnišnice v prenosni mehki torbi (58,2%), v sedežu skupine 0 (28,2%), v sedežu skupine 0+ (6,8%) in v naročju (5,8%). Mlade matere (15-24 let) nameravajo 1,5-krat pogosteje peljati novorojenčka domov v naročju ali v mehki torbi kot starejše matere (OR=1,51 (1,05-2,17); p=0,03), nizko izobražene matere pa dvakrat pogosteje v primerjavi z višje izobraženimi (OR=2,17 (1,46-3,25); p<0,001). Starši nameravajo kupiti sedež v 39,9%, v 40,6% primerov pa si ga bodo izposodili. Družine z več kot enim otrokom si nameravajo 1,9-krat pogosteje izposoditi sedež, v primerjavi z družinami s prvim otrokom (OR= 1,92 (1,38-2,68); p<0.001). Če bi imeli na voljo organizirano izposojo sedežev, bi se družine iz nižjih socialnoekonomskih razredov 1,9 krat pogosteje odločile za izposojo sedeža v primerjavi z družinami iz višjih socialnoekonomskih razredov (OR=1,87 (1,26-2,77); p=0,001 ). Po njihovem mnenju bi bilo najbolj primemo, da bi se izposoja organizirala v porodnišnici (38,3%) ali v zdravstvenem domu (23,2%). Zaključki: Nujen je razvoj dodatnih preventivnih programov, predvsem za mlade starše. Program organizirane izposoje sedežev bi izboljšal uporabo vamostnih sedežev za novorojenčka predvsem v socialnoekonomsko šibkejših družinah.
