INTRODUCTION: Children and adolescents constitute nearly 30% of the global population, and injuries within this age group represent a significant public health concern worldwide.
METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted across five hospitals within the MNG-HA. The Trauma Registry database extracted all pediatric patients with injuries from 2015 to 2022 who were admitted for at least 1 day to MNG-HA hospitals. The outcome was severe injuries, defined as an Injury Severity Score (ISS) ≥16, and the characteristics of the patients included various demographic, health, and injury-related factors. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were reported separately for each age group (0-6, 7-12, and 13-19 years).
RESULTS: Out of 3,382 patients, 16.8% experienced severe injuries, with a higher prevalence among males. Significant associations with severe injuries included drowning, poisoning, and assault in the 0-6 age group; abdominal/spine injuries and motor vehicle crashes, in the 7-12 age group; and poisoning and intentional self-harm in adolescents.
CONCLUSION: This study identifies critical factors associated with severe injuries across age groups, informing targeted interventions to reduce injury risk in Saudi Arabia.
