Biomechanics of neck injuries resulting from rear-end vehicle collisions.
It has been claimed that 85% of the neck injuries caused by car accidents are the result of rear-end collisions. This type of injury is called a whiplash injury, and its mechanisms are not completely understood due to the limited ability to diagnose them using X-ray or MRI. Biomechanical studies including research on injury mechanisms, injury criteria, neck kinematics and injury epidemiology we...
متن کاملThe prognosis of neck injuries resulting from rear-end vehicle collisions.
Injury of the neck may result when a motor vehicle is run into from behind; such injury is frequently the cause of prolonged disability and litigation. We report a series of 61 patients with these injuries. A classification, based upon the presenting symptoms and physical signs has been evolved. This classification is shown to be a reliable basis for formulating a prognosis. Factors which adver...
متن کاملp98: road traffic collisions and spinal cord injuries
a spinal cord injury (sci) refers to any injury to the spinal cord or nerves at the end of the spinal canal that is caused by trauma instead of disease often causes permanent changes in strength, sensation and other body functions below the site of the injury. road traffic collision (rtc) or car crash occurs when a vehicle collides with another vehicle, pedestrian, animal, road debris, or other...
متن کاملMaxillofacial injuries in moose-motor vehicle collisions versus other high-speed motor vehicle collisions.
BACKGROUND Anecdotal experience has suggested that there is a higher frequency of maxillofacial injuries among motor vehicle collisions involving moose. OBJECTIVES A retrospective cohort study design was used to investigate the incidence of various injuries resulting from moose-motor vehicle collisions versus other high-speed motor vehicle collisions. METHODS A chart review was conducted am...
