We all want to live in a world where nothing traumatic ever happens to children, however....
- Injury is the leading cause of death of children aged 1 to 16 years in Australia
-
There were 686,409 injury-related hospitalisations, which equates to an age standardised injury hospitalisation rate of 1489 per 100,000 children in Australia.
-
For every severely injured child, there are at least 13 children hospitalised with minor or moderate injuries..
-
A higher proportion of injured children resided in areas of socioeconomic disadvantage.
-
The rate of hospitalised injury cases was almost twice as high for children in outer regional and remote areas as for Major cities
