Epidemiología y factores de riesgo de las lesiones por caídas en niños menores de un año

The most serious injuries occur in children <3 months and from a height of >50 cm, though not related to unwitnessed falls. Because the most common serious injury mechanism is the fall from the arms of the carer, from stairs, and falls in the street, these facts should be highlighted in order to avoid morbidity.
