Each year, gun violence kills approximately 2,700 and injures approximately 14,500 children in the U.S.; the overwhelming majority of child gun deaths are among teenagers who die by homicide or suicide. Gun violence is the leading cause of death for Black teens. A recent spate of high-profile tragedies involving children, such as the Newtown mass shooting in 2012 and the Parkland mass shooting in 2018, have reinvigorated a national debate about the role of guns in our private and public spaces. Physicians, and in particular pediatricians, have become increasingly vocal about the need to address the epidemic of gun violence in the U.S. This book serves as an in-depth, comprehensive guide to adolescent gun violence prevention. It describes the epidemiology of teen gun violence in the U.S. by focusing on the parallel epidemics that claim the most lives: gun suicide among rural white males, and gun homicide among urban Black males. It offers in-depth reviews of key concepts that are crucial to reaching a meaningful understanding of gun violence. The text also addresses specific methods of intervention at various levels of society, from the individual; to the local community; and finally to the entire nation. This first of its kind book is a valuable reference for physicians, public health scientists, policy-makers, gun reform advocates, and anyone interested in working towards a safer future for young people.

Gun violence has been an on-going issue in the United States since the country's formation. This violence affects hundreds of thousands of people per year, including those most vulnerable: youth. A statistical analysis of gun sales in the U.S. and violence caused by guns is necessary to understand the depth of this issue. A discussion of the ease of which youth can obtain guns, legally or illegally, is another necessity. Youth offenders, specifically those who've committed mass shootings, need to be studied to comprehend how they've been able to accomplish such atrocities. How and why they have done what they've done are vital questions that should be answered to ensure that 'never again' is genuinely never again. Details, such as methods used by the offender, potential targets and motives also need to be analyzed so that identification and prevention methods can be formed. Identifying the victims of gun violence is also essential. Defining the differences between direct victimization and indirect victimization of youth is key to understanding the physical, psychological, social and financial effects of gun violence. A look into these effects within lower-income areas paints a clearer picture of just how damaging they are. A major piece in regards to gun violence and youth would be the attitudes that youth have in regards to guns. Age and easy accessibility to guns affect how youth perceive owning guns. Linking the differences in gender to how youths view and interact with guns is also essential. Types of aggression and the risk factors for both males and females could help prevention programs become more productive. Understanding why youth carry guns in the first place is also incredibly important. However, different reasons exist among the various races, so each of those reasons should be thoroughly examined. Lastly, comparing gun violence within the United States and European and Asian countries can portray the differences practices involving guns in those countries and the United States. Looking at the prevention strategies for youth in Finland, Germany, and Yemen may give way to new ideas for the United States.

Pediatric firearm injuries are a significant public and medical community issue. Clinicians are on the front line caring for children, adolescents, and their families after a firearm injury or death. They also represent the best hopes for preventing firearm injuries to children and adolescents in the future. In circumstances of injury and violence they provide medical, mental health, and rehabilitative care. They also provide anticipatory guidance to prevent firearm injuries and deaths and should have a strong voice in the local, state and national discussions about firearm policies for injury prevention. This book provides an overview of the epidemiology and risk factors for firearm injuries in children and adolescents. It will serve as a practical clinical guide for firearm injury prevention at the individual, state and national levels. The beginning of the book focuses on the epidemiology of firearm injuries, primarily centered in the United States, but also including an international perspective. It addresses the role of firearms in suicide, homicide, and domestic violence, and examines mass shootings as well. The second half of the book focuses on preventive measures for firearm injuries including primary care and hospital-based interventions, community interventions, and state and federal legislation. It concludes with a background on the history of firearm research in the United States and future directions for decreasing firearm injuries. The book’s overall focus is on public policy and the role of clinicians and public health advocates, while simultaneously offering practical tools and information about the clinician’s role in intervention. Written by experts in the field, Pediatric Firearm Injuries and Fatalities is an ideal resource for pediatric, adolescent medicine, emergency medicine, primary care and family medicine clinicians. At the same time, it appeals to all clinicians and public health advocates wishing to develop a better understanding of pediatric firearm injuries and a path forward to decreasing them.
