This study aimed to identify various hazard risks which are related to children in schools. This study used a quantitative descriptive design. The sampling technique used was four stage stratified random sampling, with 329 elementary schools as the sample. The results identified various dangerous situations which are related to children and schools ranging from infectious diseases, natural disasters, violence against children and the dangers due to the absence of adequate safety at school. Dangers from natural disasters which could be identified were earthquake, volcano, flood, hurricane landslide, and drought as well as potential biological hazards such as contagion and caterpillar outbreak. Additionally, the dangers related to violence against children were fighting, extortion, physical violence, psychological violence, sexual violence, bullying, and stealing. Related to safety aspects at schools, there were dangerous situations caused by the activities of the children themselves which caused injuries, or other technical causes, such as fire, falling buildings/falling trees, food poisoning, and infectious diseases.

Abstract Thirty patients suffering from minor head injury were examined with auditory brain stem responses (ABR), neuropsy-chological tests for assessment of higher nervous functions, and a questionnaire on postconcussional symptoms. Comparison of the 6 patients with altered ABR with the other 24 showed no statistical difference in either the number of long-lasting postconcussional symptoms or the scores on neuropsychological tests. Subclinical brain stem involvement as shown by ABR does not seem to correlate with impaired mental function or symptoms of the postconcussion syndrome. This greatly limits the use of ABR in forensic medicine.
