Tolerance Limits for Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Derived from Numerical Head Impact Replication
نویسندگان
چکیده
Human body mathematical modeling in impact biomechanics was firstly led in order to predict body kinematics and only later to define injury mechanisms. The objective of the undergoing research is to produce numerical tools which are able to predict head injuries. The present study focuses on the injury prediction capability of a numerical head model simulating professional football players who undergo significant head impacts resulting in minor traumatic brain injury.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a disruption in the brain functions following a head trauma. Cell therapy may provide a promising treatment for TBI. Human neural stem cells cultured in self-assembling peptide scaffolds have been proposed as a potential novel method for cell replacement treatment after TBI. In the present study, we accessed the effects of human neural stem/progenitor cells (hNS/...

متن کاملA proposed injury threshold for mild traumatic brain injury.
Traumatic brain injuries constitute a significant portion of injury resulting from automotive collisions, motorcycle crashes, and sports collisions. Brain injuries not only represent a serious trauma for those involved but also place an enormous burden on society, often exacting a heavy economical, social, and emotional price. Development of intervention strategies to prevent or minimize these ...
متن کاملBiomechanical risk estimates for mild traumatic brain injury.
The objective of this study was to characterize the risk of mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI) in living humans based on a large set of head impact data taken from American football players at the collegiate level. Real-time head accelerations were recorded from helmet-mounted accelerometers designed to stay in contact with the player's head. Over 27,000 head impacts were recorded, including fo...
