Abstract

Background: Severe injuries in child-care institutions are an important social issue. However, no reports on this matter have been made in Japan. This study examined trends in severe injuries at child-care institutions, including the impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.

Methods: We conducted a serial cross-sectional study and interrupted time-series (ITS) analysis with a linear regression model to assess trends in the incidence rate of severe injuries using Japanese national open data between January or April 2017 and December 2021. Participants were individuals utilizing legislated types child-care institutions. The outcomes were annual and monthly incidence rates of severe injuries in legislated types child-care institutions.

Results: The number of legislated types child-care institutions increased from 32,793 facilities in 2017 to 38,666 facilities in 2021, and the number of participants rose from 2,802,228 in 2017 to 3,059,734 in 2021. The annual incidence rate of severe injuries in 2021 was 58.3 cases per 100,000 person-years, which is twofold higher than that in 2017. The ITS for the monthly incidence rate demonstrated an increasing trend before the COVID-19 pandemic.

Conclusions: Before the COVID-19 pandemic, the monthly incidence rate of severe injuries in legislated types child-care institutions increased. The annual incidence rate in Japan may have also increased during the observation period.

立法规定类型的儿童保育机构中的儿童伤害。

背景：托儿机构中的严重伤害是一个重要的社会问题。然而，日本还没有这方面的报告。本研究探讨了托儿机构严重伤害的趋势，包括冠状病毒病 2019（COVID-19）大流行的影响：我们利用 2017 年 1 月或 4 月至 2021 年 12 月期间的日本全国公开数据，进行了连续横截面研究和间断时间序列（ITS）分析，并使用线性回归模型评估了严重伤害发生率的趋势。参与者为使用法定类型托儿机构的个人。结果为法定类型托儿机构的年度和月度严重伤害发生率：法定类型托儿机构的数量从 2017 年的 32,793 家增加到 2021 年的 38,666 家，参与者人数从 2017 年的 2,802,228 人增加到 2021 年的 3,059,734 人。2021 年严重伤害的年发病率为每 10 万人年 58.3 例，比 2017 年高出 2 倍。在 COVID-19 大流行之前，月发病率的 ITS 呈上升趋势：结论：在 COVID-19 大流行之前，法定类型托幼机构中严重伤害的月发病率有所上升。在观察期间，日本的年发病率可能也有所上升。

Pediatrics International opens the door to all authors throughout the world. Manuscripts are judged by two experts solely upon the basis of their contribution of original data, original ideas and their presentation.
