Doc: Please don't buy e-scooter for your kid at Xmas

Irish Daily Star

PEOPLE have been urged not to buy e-scooters for children ahead of the Christmas period as authorities warned of a "worrying" rise in brain injuries linked to their use.

- BY GRAINNE NI AODHA

It is illegal for children aged under 16 to ride an e-scooter on a public road.

Despite this, they have become the leading cause of traumatic brain injury in children admitted to Children’s Health Ireland at Temple Street.

E-scooter-related brain injuries made up more than 25% of paediatric neurosurgical admissions at Temple Street this year.

Around half of these children required intensive care and almost half underwent emergency neurosurgery, with some left with permanent disabilities.
