L'OMS è stata chiara: la salute materno-infantile è un tema di enorme importanza sanitaria e richiede investimenti, progetti, energie e impegno, rappresentando una componente fondamentale della salute pubblica delle popolazioni umane.

This inter-disciplinary project investigates the relationship between family structure and early child health. The two main aims are: (1) to determine whether family structure and changes in family structure are associated with children's physical health in the Millennium Cohort Study; (2) to explore potential pathways through which these associations operate. In spite of much public debate around families, marriage, and child outcomes, UK literature on this topic remains incomplete.

This project was established to answer the following questions: Is the current, (in 1991), classification of paediatric diagnoses adequate for current and predicted future needs? If not, are there any available suitable alternatives? If not, what diagnostic classification will suit the requirements of specialists and generalists in the various fields of child health? How will any new paediatric classification fit in with other new classifications? These questions can only be answered when the following subsidiary questions have been addressed: Why are clinical classification systems necessary?

Evidence suggests that child behavior, parent mental health, parent supervision, and home environment conditions impact a child’s risk of injury.

Due to the high rates of mental health problems within this population, several studies have shown that referral to paediatric psychology should be increased (e.g. Wagner & Smith, 2007).
