On average, the fatality rate from unintentional injuries has dropped by 45 percent over the past 20 years, and that is due to the dedication of all of the organizations we have here today to research the best ways to prevent childhood injury and to get that information out to parents and to caregivers. But we are also here today to talk about what still needs to be done in this area, and a lot needs to be done, of course. Despite the decrease I mentioned, we still have an average of 430 children dying each month from accidental injuries. It is still the No. 1 killer of American children under the age of 14, regrettably.

Everyone who has children knows just how easily they can get hurt. Each year, for example, approximately 9,000 infants suffer injuries related to their high chairs. Thousands more are poisoned by common household substances. In total, more than 25 million children are injured annually, and more than 12,000 kids under the age of 14 succumb to their injuries. What makes these incidents even more tragic is that they can be prevented--if only parents knew how. Well, now they will. Written by an emergency physician, Child Safe is a practical parenting book that will help keep babies and young children out of trouble. It will help parents recognize the dangers to kids and provide concrete ways of preventing specific injuries. Child Safe is the most complete, organized, and parent-friendly child-safety book ever written for the general public. It addresses the most pressing safety issues from birth to age 14, issues that change dramatically as a child grows up. This invaluable guide for parents, grandparents, teachers, childcare workers, and baby-sitters has the information to prevent millions of childhood injuries. Dr. Mark Brandenburg, with his years of experience, shows how to keep your "child safe."
