Motor vehicle collisions remain a leading cause of death and injury in children in the United States. Our Level I trauma center found that 53% of children ages 1-19 years are improperly restrained or unrestrained. Our center employs a Pediatric Injury Prevention Coalition with nationally certified child passenger safety technicians who are active in the community yet remain underutilized in the clinical setting.
