Adults are careless, little girl has an accident

A little girl accidentally grabbed the handlebar of a motorbike, causing it to crash into a fence, causing injury. The accident happened due to the mother's carelessness when she got off the motorbike without turning it off.

On August 15, the City Children's Hospital announced that it had received treatment for a baby girl named HCT (26 months old, Tay Ninh province) who had a serious accident.

Medical history showed that 2 hours before admission, the mother drove the child on a scooter. When she got home, the mother got off the scooter but kept the engine running. The girl was sitting in front, accidentally holding onto the scooter, causing it to crash straight into the iron gate fence.

The accident caused the baby to hit his face against the fence, his stomach and chest hitting the front of the car. His eyes and lips were bleeding profusely. His family immediately took him to the City Children's Hospital.

At this time, the child was awake, responsive, and in a state of panic. The doctor examined and noted a complex wound to the left eye, a torn eyelid, and a torn lip. The diagnostic imaging results showed no damage to the eyeball, no intracranial damage, minimal lung contusion, and no internal organ damage.

Immediately afterwards, the child's wound was stopped from bleeding, he was injected with serum and tetanus vaccine, and his eyelid and lip wounds were sutured. After 5 days of treatment, the child's condition gradually improved, the wound was clean and dry, and vision in both eyes was normal.

Doctors warn that parents should wear seat belts when carrying young children on motorbikes. If the child is sitting in the front, a cushion should be placed on the front of the vehicle to avoid collision. When stopping and getting off the vehicle, parents must turn off the engine and take the child off with them to avoid serious accidents that may occur.
