“…Injury prevention has a strong scientific basis and many approaches are cost-effective (Franklin and Sleet, 2018). There must also be an appreciation of the multiple determinants of health that include; individual behaviours, the physical environment and access to health services.…”

“…There are publications on the Thailand healthcare system. The last determinant of health mentioned by Franklin and Sleet is access to health services (Franklin and Sleet, 2018). There is information in the scientific literature available should the reader want information on accessibility of the Thailand hospital system (Suriyawongpaisal et al, 2018).…”

“…A manuscript published in 2018 by Franklin & Sleet in the Health Promotion Journal of Australia reports that every day, almost 16000 people die from an injury worldwide and one quarter of these deaths are the result of road traffic crashes (Franklin and Sleet, 2018). Almost twice as many men than women die from injuries with traffic accidents the main cause for young men worldwide.…”

Introduction: Road safety campaigns in Australia typically have simple, hit home messages with captions overlaid on photos. The Australian stop, revive, survive campaign is well-known, with accompanying photos displaying red fatigued eyes with the words; tired eyes, yawning, driver fatigue: wake up to the signs. Otherwise, the stop, revive, survive is shown with a windy road ahead viewed through a dashboard.Objectives: The aim of this project was to create a helmet safety message utilising a photograph along with several text words alongside.Methods: A photograph taken by Stephen Hilton of a motorcyclist with no helmet, holding one handlebar, was utilised with the words;‘Helmet, Handlebars, Headlights’ overlaid above along with arrows. This safety design was shown to forty persons, in order to obtain brief feedback and comments on whether this had the potential to convey the message about the need for a helmet in particular. The comments were gathered, collated and then common themes were identified.Results and Discussion: Five emerging themes were identified that included; The message is simple and straight to the point, cultural awareness is required, the need to enforce it as law, motor cycle riders think they are invincible and finally respondents were unsure whether it would work. A word cloud was created capturing and highlighting the main words stated in larger font, while words used infrequently were displayed in smaller font.Conclusion: More than half of the respondents questioned thought the idea was simple, straight to the point and hence should work.

“…Addressing this strategy requires alignment of structural, political, environmental and behavioral factors and change of social norms [17]. Injury prevention is an example of dealing with these multiple factors [18]. In road safety guidelines, the WHO has pointed to the role of educational activities for policymakers and executives and has identi ed them as motives for behavior change [19].…”

Background: Pedestrians are vulnerable in traffic, and unsafe behaviors often lead to their injury. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of a theory-based training package (TBTP) on improving pedestrians’ safe traffic behaviors.Methods: This study is a protocol for a field trial with parallel arms to examine the effect of educational intervention on 204 pedestrians that are selected using multi-stage cluster sampling. In order to prepare a training package, a sequential exploratory mixed study will be performed in 4 phases: 1) A questionnaire will be designed using a qualitative study and constructs of the theory of planned behavior (TPB). 2) A cross-sectional study will be performed to evaluate the psychometrics of the questionnaire and current situation, 3) The training package will be designed based on the previous phase findings, results of related studies, opinions of a panel of experts and effective techniques for behavior and belief change. 4) The effect of training will be measured using pre and posttest to comparing the mean scores of different theory constructs on pedestrians’ behavior between the intervention and control groups before and three months after the intervention. The between-group differences in terms of demographic variables, awareness, risk perception, beliefs, intention and behavior will be examined first. Paired t-test and ANCOVA will be applied to evaluate the effect of the intervention between the two groups.Discussion: The present research provides good information about pedestrians’ needs and evidence-based approach to promoting traffic culture, and reducing pedestrian injuries.Trial registration: Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials ≠ IRCT20180228038896N1

“…Even when critically injured children survive their injuries, they often face long-term health consequences, such as physical disability and reduced health-related quality of life [6 , 7] . These sequelae of critical injury impact not only the child but also their parents and other family members [8] .…”

Introduction: To provide effective care and promote wellbeing and positive outcomes for parents and families following paediatric critical injury there is a need to understand parent experiences and psychosocial support needs. This study explores parent experiences two years following their child's critical injury. Methods: This multi-centre study used an interpretive qualitative design. Parent participants were recruited from four paediatric hospitals in Australia. Semi-structured interviews were audio recorded and transcribed verbatim. Qualitative data were thematically analysed and managed using NVivo 11. Results: Twenty-two parents participated. Three themes were identified through analysis: Recovering from child injury; Managing the emotional impact of child injury; Being resilient and finding ways to adapt. Conclusions: A long-term dedicated trauma family support role is required to ensure continuity of care, integration of support and early targeted intervention to prevent long-term adverse outcomes for critically injured children and their families. Early and ongoing psychosocial intervention would help strengthen parental adaptation and address families' psychosocial support needs following child injury.
