ABSTRACT
Reccntly, childhood unintentional injuries have been recognized as a social problem. According to the world report on children injury (World Health Organization (WHO), 2008), unintentional injury is a major killer of children under the age of 18 years and is responsible for approximately 950,000 deaths. After the age of 1 year, unintentional injuries are significant contributors to the deaths of children and teenagers. Due to the present awareness of this subject, WHO has formulated a 10year global strategy for child injury prevention by promoting research and preventive activities in all countries (World Health Organization (WHO), 2006).
