The current state of the contemporary world in terms of depth and dynamics of changes, as well as the accelerated rate of research and innovation on evidence-based risk management, generate a progressive growth in the amount of medical and biological data. Therefore, One Health & Risk Management Journal will support and publish manuscripts based on scientific evidence on human, animal and environmental health. The priority for acceptance would be given to those articles which report study results on identification of specific hazards and risk assessment associated with these hazards, development and analysis of potential risk management options, as well as selection and implementation of a specific monitoring and evaluation strategy used for risk management. The rigorous review process (double-blind peer review) will involve professionals from various scientific fields, who comply with the international ethical guidelines for scientific publications. One Health & Risk Management magazine will increase its visibility by exchanging articles with other relevant publications and collaborating with similar national and international organizations, as well as via its website, which includes the recently published articles, providing the opportunity to get real-time information (Free Open Access).

Around 950,000 children and teenagers die each year as a result of injuries and violence throughout the world. The most common cause of death for children under the age of five is trauma that occurs in the home environment. Aim of the study: To assess the knowledge, attitudes and practices of parents with children aged 0-5 years old regarding unintentional injuries among home environment. Materials and methods. Parents of children under five years old were asked to complete a survey between October and December 2021, which was distributed online via social media. The questionnaire contained 43 items and was analysed using Microsoft Excel. Results. The questionnaire was completed by 300 parents with children up to 5 years old, mostly aged between 26-35 years old (72%), with high education (79.3%), of them 96% females, majority from urban areas (79.7%), with medium socio-economic status. Nearly 75% of respondents believe their child could get hurt at home, most commonly through an injury (42.7%), followed by ingesting foreign objects (22%). Falls were the primary cause of the majority of the child's accidents over the last year (60%) despite them being uncommon (54.7%) and infrequent (22%) in nature. Most often (54.7%), parents said that they see and hear their child all the time, but occasionally leave them for a short time. When their child suffered an injury at home, only 33.3% of parents sought medical attention. Conclusion. The results of this study will allow for a greater focus on young children's safety in the household. By identifying and emphasizing the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of parents with children 0–5 years old, we will be able to notify the necessary authorities and advise particular measures to prevent home accidents.; Introducere. Aproximativ 950.000 de copii și adolescenți decedează în fiecare an în întreaga lume ca urmare a traumelor și a violenței. Cea mai frecventă cauză de deces pentru copiii sub cinci ani sunt traumele care au loc în mediul casnic. Scopul studiului: evaluarea cunoștințelor, atitudinilor și practicilor părinților care au copii cu vârstele cuprinse între 0-5 ani în ceea ce privește leziunile neintenționate în mediul casnic. Material și metode. Părinții copiilor sub 5 ani au completat un chestionar în perioada octombrie - decembrie 2021, care a fost distribuit online prin rețelele sociale. Chestionarul a conținut 43 de itemi și a fost analizat folosind Microsoft Excel. Rezultate. Chestionarul a fost completat de 300 de părinți. Majoritatea părinților aveau vârstele cuprinse între 26-35 de ani (72%), cu studii superioare – 79,3%, dintre care 96% de femei, majoritatea din mediul urban (79,7%), cu statut socioeconomic mediu. Aproape 75% considerau, că în condițiile casnice copii lor ar putea fi afectați cel mai frecvent din cauza unei răni (42,7%), urmată de ingerarea de obiecte străine (22%). În ultimul an, conform itemilor din chestionar, căderile au fost cauza principală a traumelor copiilor (60%), în 54,7% căderile au fost înregistrate mai puțin frecvent și în 22% de cazuri - rar. De cele mai multe ori (54,7%) părinții au menționat că copiii sunt permanent supravegheați, totuși, ocazional, se întâmplă să-i lase fără supraveghere pe o durată scurtă de timp. Când copilul lor a suferit o traumă acasă, doar 33,3% dintre părinți au solicitat îngrijiri medicale. Concluzie. Rezultatele acestui studiu accentuează importanța siguranței copiilor în mediul casnic. Prin identificarea și evidențierea cunoștințelor, atitudinilor și practicilor părinților cu copii sub 5 ani, vom putea sesiza instituțiile necesare să întreprindă măsuri speciale pentru prevenirea traumatismelor casnice.
