In adjusted regression models both younger (11\u201315 years) and older (16\u201318 years) adolescents with multisite injuries including the head and neck had higher odds of developing HAP compared with adolescents with isolated head and neck injuries (odds ratio [OR] = 2.04, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.34\u20133.10; OR = 1.47, 95% CI 1.14\u20131.89, respectively), and younger adolescents with multisite injuries not involving the head and neck also had higher odds of developing HAP (OR = 1.97, 95% CI 1.08\u20133.60). We found no significant association between injury region and risk of HAP in children &amp;lt;11 years of age. Younger and older adolescents with firearm (OR = 1.85, 95% CI 1.00\u20133.42; OR = 1.39, 95% CI 1.02\u20131.88, respectively) or pulmonary (OR = 3.78, 95% CI 1.26\u201311.3; OR = 2.56, 95% CI 1.01\u20136.51, respectively) injuries had higher odds of developing HAP compared with those with motor vehicle collision injuries.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>CONCLUSIONS:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Adolescent trauma patients with multisite injuries including the head and neck have a higher risk of developing HAP compared with those with isolated head and neck injuries.
