[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS 7rR0xFIB. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Objectives. We compared proportions of children properly restrained in vehicles in 6 Northwest American Indian tribes in 2003 and 2009, and evaluated risks for improper restraint. Methods. During spring 2009 we conducted a vehicle observation survey in Oregon, Washington, and Idaho tribal communities. We estimated the proportions of children riding properly restrained and evaluated correlates of improper restraint via log-binomial regression models for clustered data. Results. We observed 1853 children aged 12 years and younger in 1207 vehicles ; 49% rode properly restrained. More children aged 8 years and younger rode properly restrained in 2009 than 2003 (51% vs 29% ; P<. older booster seat-eligible children were least likely to ride properly restrained in american indian more improperly than nonnative the same communities. other risk factors included riding with an unrestrained or nonparent driver where child passenger restraint laws weaker national guidelines and taking a short trip. conclusions. although proper has increased it remains low. tribe-initiated interventions improve use are under way.>
