Abstract：
BACKGROUND: Household cleaning products are the second most common cause of unintentional poisoning in children < 6 years old in the United States. The aim of this study is to characterize exposures to household cleaning substances in this age group from data collected from the Nation\'s Poison Control Centers.
METHODS: This cross-sectional study analyzed all household cleaner calls classified as age < 6 years old made to the American Association of Poison Control Centers between January 1st 2000 and December 31th 2015.
RESULTS: Significant clinical effects or injury was low, making up only 2.6% of cases with a known medical outcome. Alkali-based cleaning products accounted for the third highest frequency of overall exposures and the highest number of all exposure outcomes determined to have a significant clinical effect or injury.
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated particular danger of adverse outcomes after exposure to alkali-based cleaning products, specifically alkali-based oven and drain cleaners. Both of which are readily accessible in many households. This study may be a good starting point for further study and poison prevention efforts.

摘要：
背景：家庭清洁产品是美国6岁以下儿童意外中毒的第二大常见原因。这项研究的目的是通过从国家毒物控制中心收集的数据来表征该年龄段家庭清洁物质的暴露。
方法：这项横断面研究分析了2000年1月1日至2015年12月31日期间向美国毒物控制中心协会发出的所有年龄<6岁的家庭清洁工电话。
结果：显著的临床效果或损伤较低，仅占已知医疗结果病例的2.6%。基于碱的清洁产品占总暴露频率的第三高，并且在确定具有重大临床影响或伤害的所有暴露结果中数量最高。
结论：这项研究表明，暴露于碱性清洁产品后，不良结局的危险尤其严重。特别是碱性烤箱和下水道清洁剂。这两者在许多家庭中都很容易获得。这项研究可能是进一步研究和毒物预防工作的良好起点。
