We looked at existing recommendations for preventing unintentional injuries in children under five years of age, and we attempted to identify the main sources used as evidence for formulating these recommendations.We conducted a literature search up to the 18th October 2019 by using key terms and manual search in selected sources. We summarized the recommendations and source of the evidence in tables for each of five areas of unintentional injuries: road traffic injuries, drowning, poisoning, thermal injuries, falls.In 2008, the World Health Organization (WHO) published a comprehensive report with strategies for child injury prevention for the European region. More recently, the WHO published several guidance documents focused on one area such as drowning, usually with a global focus. The PrevInfad workgroup (Spanish Association of Primary Care Pediatrics) updated their document on road safety in April 2019, providing recommendations and a summary of the existing evidence. Preventive strategies for injuries in childhood are mainly based on surveillance data and the identification of risk factors. The key strategies for preventing unintentional injuries are a combination of environmental and behaviour modification, that can be achieved through engineering, enforcement and education. Consequently, for this kind of strategies, it is important to evaluate the effectiveness of both the intervention itself, and the way the intervention is advised to parents and caretakers so that there is good compliance of the recommendation.

“…The perceived risk is greater among the parents of the youngest infants and of the oldest children (at both extremes of the age range we analysed). The lack of autonomy perceived in the youngest children, and the drive to explore, the lack of fear, and the mobility and manipulation skills that characterise the older ones may be the factors why parents perceive these children as more likely to get injured 15 . However, this seems to be in contradiction with the fact that it is precisely the youngest children that wore jewellery the most, and the older ones that owned it most frequently, facts that seem hard to explain.…”

“…Las heridas incluyen traumatismos craneoencefálicos, fracturas, quemaduras, lesiones dentales, laceraciones e intoxicaciones. 7,8 A pesar de ser usados bajo la supervisión de un adulto, la velocidad que pueden alcanzar los niños en los andadores es mayor que aquella a la que puede reaccionar el adulto, por lo que quedan expuestos a velocidades, distancias o alturas que no pueden manejar.…”

RESUMENDiversos productos que se utilizan habitualmente para el sostén, el transporte o el entretenimiento de niños pequeños pueden causar lesiones no intencionales. El presente consenso intenta brindar a pediatras y familias elementos para conocer y elegir el mobiliario infantil seguro. El consenso convocó a 24 expertos y se realizó siguiendo el método Delphi, que consiste en rondas sucesivas de preguntas. Las recomendaciones están avaladas con bibliografía sobre cada tema. Se recomienda no utilizar andadores, por ser inútiles y peligrosos. Se dan pautas para elegir un sistema de retención infantil adecuado a cada niño, cómo y cuándo utilizarlo y cómo instalarlo en forma segura. Se describen las lesiones y sus medidas de prevención en relación con cochecitos para niños, sillas altas, cunas y cuchetas. Se esquematizan los riesgos y las formas de evitarlos mediante figuras, que podrían utilizarse para difundir recomendaciones en las familias. Palabras clave: seguridad, mobiliario infantil, andadores, sistemas de retención infantil, cuchetas.ABSTRACT Several products that are used for support, transportation or recreation in infants and children can cause non intentional injuries. This consensus tries to provide pediatricians and families with the necessary elements to recognize and choose safe infant´s furniture. A group of 24 experts developed a consensus according to Delphi´s method, which consists in successive rounds of questions. Recommendations are supported with bibliography. Infant walkers are not recommended, as they are considered useless and dangerous. Guidelines are given to choose appropriate child restraint systems, when and how to use them, and how to install them in a safe way. Injuries and prevention measures related to strollers, high chairs, cribs and bunk beds are described. Risks and the way to avoid them are diagrammed in figures that can be used to transmit recommendations to families.
