Sažetak

In Croatia, injuries are the leading cause of death after fi rst year of life throughout childhood. Therefore, the aim is to present trends in total mortality caused by injuries, and specifi cally traffi c injuries, in the 0-19 age group in Croatia between 1995 and 2014, and to standardize data using the Eurostat European Standard Population for 2013. Methods: The population and mortality data used in this study were obtained from the Croatian Bureau of Statistics and prepared by the Croatian Institute of Public Health. Data on population and mortality were divided into fi ve age groups and four 5-year periods, and all analyses were performed with the Statistica version 12 software. The results of this study showed a statistically signifi cant decline in injuries, as well as in traffi c injury death rates in Croatia in the 1-19 age group from 10.9 per 100,000 to 5.7 per 100,000 for boys and from 5.2 per 100,000 to 2.1 per 100,000 for girls in the 1995-2014 period. Conclusion: Although progress has been made in the child safety measures, additional education of parents and children, preventive actions and traffi c safety promotion measures are needed to provide a safe environment for children.
