RESUMO
Objective To explore risk factors of unintentional injuries among internal-migrant children. Methods A 1 ∶〗1 matched case-control study was conducted between 332 internal-migrant children with unintentional injuries, based on the principle that same class, same gender and age was no more than two years old. The survey was based on the unified questionnaire. Epi Data 3.1 was used to establish database and SPSS 23.0 was used for univariate analysis and multi-conditional Logistic regression analysis. Results Multi-conditional Logistic regression analysis model indicated that caregiver put pressure on children before exam and the adjusted odd ratio (OR) was 2.086 and 95% confidence interval (CI) was 1.263-3.444, caregiver’s character was extravert type (OR=2.074, 95% CI:1.275-3.372) or middle type (OR=1.796, 95% CI: 1.158-2.784), caregiver’s educational background was illiteracy (OR=1.867, 95% CI: 1.280-2.722) or primary school (OR=2.458, 95% CI: 1.169-5.168), the neurotic behaviors of children (OR=1.466, 95% CI: 1.012-2.124) were risk factors of unintentional injuries among internal-migrant children. Conclusions The characteristics related to internal-migrant children’s caregiver and children’s neurotic behaviors are associated with the occurrence of unintentional injuries. Immediate and effective measures should be taken to ease the high injury prevalence and prevent the unintentional injuries among internal-migrant children.
