Description | From the rich source of ELSPAC project data we chose children's falls, as they belong among important problems of childhood. We analysed them in four stages till the age of five. Falls occured the most often in boys 6-18 months old and they mostly happened at home. It is possible to briefly characterize the circumstances of falls as follows: anytime-wherever-from anywhere-by any mean-to whomever. |
