长期暴露在阳光下与诱发皮肤癌（包括黑色素瘤）和皮肤老化有关，对某些疾病（如红斑狼疮）有不良影响，并导致药物引起的光毒性反应。个体一生中的大部分阳光暴露可能发生在儿童时期，因此早期光保护是可取的。我们对佛罗里达州的儿科医生进行了一项书面调查，内容是他们将防晒信息作为常规儿童保健的一部分。结果表明，大多数的儿科医生都意识到需要对父母和病人进行有关阳光相关问题的教育，大多数（65%）要求提供更多的信息和教育材料。这项研究表明，扩大教育工作有关的阳光有关的健康危害和防晒将是可取的医生参与儿科护理，为家长和儿童。
Chronic sun exposure has been linked to induction of skin cancers including melanoma and aging changes of the skin, has an adverse effect on certain diseases such as lupus erythematosus and is responsible for drug-induced phototoxic reactions. A majority of an individual's lifetime sun exposure may occur during childhood, and thus early photoprotection is desirable. We conducted a written survey of Florida pediatricians regarding their inclusion of sun protection information as part of routine well-child care. The results indicated that a majority of the pediatricians have awareness of the need for parent and patient education about sun-related issues, and most (65%) requested further information and educational materials. This study suggests that expanded educational efforts concerning sun-related health hazards and sun protection would be desirable for physicians involved in pediatric care, for parents, and for children.
