背景资料。在每年875,000例儿童意外伤害死亡中,有很大一部分发生在家里。南亚几乎没有印刷工具可用于传播家庭伤害预防信息。方法:研究方法。计划了三个工具:适合发展中国家环境的伤害危险评估工具、强调减少家庭伤害危险的战略的教育小册子,以及由训练有素的社区卫生工作者提供的家庭安全辅导方案。结果。成功地开发了这三种工具。巴基斯坦卡拉奇的两个干预社区被绘制成地图。这些工具在当地环境中进行了预先测试,现在已准备好在干预研究中进行试点测试。结论。在巴基斯坦这样的低收入地区,规划一项创新的、以社区为基础的试点研究需要相当多的时间和精力。该研究预试阶段的主要成果是为巴基斯坦的低收入住房社区开发了三个重要工具。
Background. A substantial proportion of the annual 875,000 childhood unintentional injury deaths occur in the home. Very few printed tools are available in South Asia for disseminating home injury prevention information. Methods. Three tools were planned: an injury hazard assessment tool appropriate for a developing country setting, an educational pamphlet highlighting strategies for reducing home injury hazards, and an in-home safety tutorial program to be delivered by a trained community health worker. Results. The three tools were successfully developed. Two intervention neighborhoods in Karachi, Pakistan, were mapped. The tools were pretested in this local setting and are now ready for pilot testing in an intervention study. Conclusion. Planning for an innovative, community-based pilot study takes considerable time and effort in a low-income setting like Pakistan. The primary outcome of the pre-testing phase of the study was the development of three important tools geared for low-income housing communities in Pakistan.
