Teaching Injury Prevention

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Injury Prevention

In brief

The purpose of this project is to compare the costs, ability to effectively screen and distribute relevant safety information, and assess products purchased and behavior changed by families after meeting with an injury prevention specialist compared to using a computerized emergency department kiosk. There will be a significantly greater reported practice of safety behaviors by families who visit a pediatric emergency department after using a computerized kiosk for injury screening and providing tailored recommendations than when the prevention information is provided by an injury prevention specialist.
