Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the risk factors of intracranial hemorrhage in children with skull fractures from head trauma. Methods: The retrospective study included 205 patients diagnosed with a skull fracture in a pediatric emergency room. Data were analyzed using 𝓍²-test, Fisher's exact test, t-test, and logistic regression analysis with the SPSS/WIN24.0 program. Results: Intracranial hemorrhage was diagnosed in 71 patients. There were statistically significant differences between the hemorrhagic group and non-hemorrhagic group in age group, places of accident, type of accident, location of the fracture, and symptoms. Intracranial hemorrhage by age group was higher in school-age and adolescence than in infancy. The places of accidents of hemorrhage were higher in street and school than in the home. The types of an accident of bleeding were higher in the case of knock and traffic accident than in fall. Symptoms of nausea, headache, and loss of consciousness were associated with higher intracranial hemorrhage. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that knock (OR= 3.29, 95% CI= 1.50-7.22), traffic accident (OR= 4.78, 95% CI= 1.31-17.43), nausea (OR= 4.18, 95% CI= 1.42-12.31), and loss of consciousness (OR= 3.29, 95% CI= 1.41-9.50) were risk factors for intracranial hemorrhage. Conclusion: In this study, the risk factors of intracranial hemorrhage were identified in pediatric patients with skull fractures caused by head trauma. It is recommended that the results of this study be used to manage and educate patients, caregivers, and medical staff after head trauma hemorrhage.

지난해 국내에서 발생한 교통사고 사망자 수는 OECD 회원국 가운데 인구 10만명당 10명으로 35개국 중 6위를 기록하고 있고, 어린이나 노인과 같은 교통약자의 사고율도 높은 수준에 있다. 본 연구에서는 관련 문헌 검토, 교통사고분석시스템 자료를 이용한 사고요인분석 및 교통사고 특성 분석 등을 통하여 국내 비도심 지역 교통약자의 교통사고 저감을 위해 개발하고 있는 교통안전시설물을 소개하고자 한다. ICT기반 횡단보도용 교통안전 통합시설물은 어린이보호구역의 횡단보도를 우선 검토대상으로 하여 불법주차 차량을 배제하며, 보행자에게 횡단보도에 접근 차량이 있음을 알려주는 스마트 안전 휀스와 횡단보도 보행자가 있음을 인지하지 못한 운전자에게 경고하는 스마트 방지턱으로 구성하여 상호 작동하도록 설계하였다. 횡단보도용 교통안전시설물의 적정 형태 및 규모를 표준화하기 위하여 도로 기능, 보도 구분, 전력, 차로 수, 기학적 형태 등을 고려한 타입별 표준모델을 구축하였고, 시설물의 요구 기능을 정의하여 아이디어를 구체화하였다. 이에 따라, 교통약자의 교통사고를 저감하고, 태양광 전력공급, 기존 설치된 안전 휀스와의 호환성을 염두에 둔 디자인으로 유지관리비용 절감효과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

The child pick-up behavior of parents during an emergency can cause heavy traffic congestion and failing to evacuate an affected area successfully. In this study, we analyzed the effect of child pick-up behavior using, as an example, a nuclear power plant accident caused by an earthquake, which is a typical no-notice emergency. A quake was assumed to occur near the Shin-Kori nuclear power plant in Ulsan, Korea, resulting in a nuclear power plant accident. An agent-based dynamic simulation model using VISSIM was employed to conduct sensitivity analyses with different child pick-up rates. The results confirmed that parents are a major cause of congestion and a vulnerable class in an emergency evacuation. The child pick-up behavior caused significant traffic congestion, and parents who pick up their children showed a higher evacuation failure rate.

어린이의 경우 신체적, 정신적 능력이 떨어지거나 완성되지 못한 이유 등으로 교통사고의 가능성이 높은 것이 현실이고, 특히 피해자로서 차대사람 사고(보행 중 사고)의 비중이 다른 연령층이나 비장애인에 비해 높게 나타나고 있다. 이로 인해 정부에서는 1995년부터 어린이 보호구역을 지정하여 보행안전을 확보하고자 일련의 정책들을 시행하여 왔다. 그러나 기존의 보호구역에 대한 효과검증 작업에 대한 기초 연구가 미흡한 것도 사실이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존의 어린이 보호구역 등에 대한 효과분석을 통해 이러한 시설들의 설치 타당성을 입증하였다. 평가지표(MOE)로는 어린이 보호구역에서의 구간통행속도 지표를 활용하였다. 차량의 속도와 교통사고와는 상관관계가 있는 것으로 입증되어 평가지표로 선정하였다. 통계분석 결과, 과속방지턱, 고원식 횡단보도 등의 시설물은 차량속도를 감속시키는데 유의한 것으로 분석되었다.

어린이는 행동적, 신체적 특성상 성인보다 교통사고에 노출될 가능성이 높기 때문에 안전한 보행환경을 조성하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 이에 이 연구에서는 교통사고분석시스템(TAAS)에서 제공하는 2016-2018년 서울시 보행자 교통사고 자료로 공간포아송 모형을 활용하여 어린이보호구역 주변 보행자 교통사고에 영향을 미치는 도로 및 교통안전시설의 특성을 분석했다. 주요 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 어린이보호구역 내 교차로가 많고 근린도로 비율이 높을수록 보행자 교통사고 발생 위험이 높아진다. 둘째, 보행자 작동신호기는 보행자 교통사고 발생을 줄이는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 이 연구에서 고려한 교통안전시설 중 보행자 작동신호기를 제외하고는 어떠한 교통안전시설도 보행자 교통사고 위험을 줄이는 데 효과가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 물리적 시설의 개선뿐만 아니라 교통안전교육 등 비물리적 요인이 뒷받침 된다면 어린이보호구역 내 보행자 교통사고 감소 효과는 더욱 극대화될 것으로 기대된다.
