Epidemiological profile of child victims of everyday life injuries versus road traffic accident

Unintentional injuries (UI) correspond to “unplanned” events; they include everyday life injuries (EDL), road traffic accident (RTA) and work accidents. In our pediatric context, the latter are excluded. Aim: Draw up an epidemiological profile of UI in children hospitalized for at least 24 hours and...
