| Core Tip |
Over 25% of firearm-associated injuries (FAIs) in pediatric patients result in firearm-associated fractures (FAFs). FAFs often present to pediatric trauma centers and the majority of these injuries occur in non-Caucasian males with government insurance. Most FAFs do not need orthopaedic surgical management; 14% of these injuries require subspecialty care by orthopaedic, vascular, or plastic surgery. Patients with FAFs have a lower injury severity score compared to patients who sustained FAIs without fracture. These patients should be treated at pediatric trauma centers with specialty care. Additional research is needed to focus prevention efforts, understand reasons for poor follow-up, and evaluate outcomes after injury. |
