Nationwide Children's Hospital — Center for Injury Research and Policy

What it is

The Center for Injury Research and Policy at Nationwide Children's Hospital is an academic pediatric injury research group publishing in the peer-reviewed literature.

What it covers

Home-injury epidemiology for children, including the multi-decade window-blind entanglement analysis and window-fall research that anchor two of the nursery zone's critical hazards.

How to verify

Studies are published in peer-reviewed journals and summarized on CIRP topic pages, which link the underlying article.

How SafeMama uses it

These are the citations behind "271 deaths over a 26-year study" and the annual window-fall estimate. Because both are multi-year study figures rather than annual counts, SafeMama states the study period in the sentence — a reader who sees a total without a window will read it as a yearly rate.

Limitations / conflicts

Study figures reflect the period analyzed and the data source used (often NEISS), and are not current-year counts. Estimates derived from NEISS carry sampling error. No commercial conflicts identified.
