Abstract
Background and purpose: Millions of children die because of accidents annually. Âccidents in children occur in various forms, considering their age, a typical form of accident is more common. Ïn our country also many children meet with an accident annually. Çonsidering the occurrence of accident in children as an accident prone age group, recognition of different patterns of accidents could be of help in its prevention. Thereby a research about the accidents patterns in children under 15 years of age has been performed.
Materials and Methods: Ïn this descriptive study 2225 children under 15 years of age who were injured and referred to emergency centers of hospitals and forensic medicine centers in Mezandaran province for a period of one year were selected randomly. Method of data collection was interview by regular questionnaire with closed questions. For data analysis descriptive and analytic statistics and X2 test were used.
Results: This study shows that falling (30.1%) and collision (26.6%) were the most common accidents. The difference between sex and type of accident was statistically significant (P<0.001) and also between the age and type of accident shows an statistically significant difference (P<0.0001).
Çonclusion: Since the accidents pattern in children under 15 years of age has been defined and identified, it is suggested that the preventive measures, specific for peculiar accidents in a particular area are effective steps in their decline.

Abstract
Background and purpose: Maternal-foetal attachment (MFÂ) is a term which describes the relationship between a pregnant women and her foetus. Mothers with high MFÂ show more confidence in their new role and a better postpartum adjustment. The present study was conducted to determine the effect of counting foetal movement on maternal-foetal attachment.
Materials and methods: This interventional study was conducted on 83 pregnant women selected through purposive sampling from pregnant women admitted to health centers of Sari in 2009. Selected subjects were randomly divided into case and control groups. We used interview checklist and MFÂ scale GHQ questionnaire. Âll cases received forms to record the number of foetal movement every morning after breakfast for one month. However, controls only received the routine pregnancy care. Scores of MFÂ before and after intervention were compared between the two groups. Data were analyzed by SPSS version 11 .
Results: The mean score for MFÂ, before intervention, were 3.52 ± 0.5 and 3.42 ± 0.43 in case and control groups respectively. Âfter intervention the scores changed into 3.96±0.38 and 3.42±0.41 respectively which significantly diffreed between the study groups (p<0.001).
Çonclusion: Ôur results indicated that simple intervention such as counting foetal movement increased the MFÂ value that we believe it improves the maternal-neonatal relationship affecting children’s future social, emotional and cognitive development.
