Proposing a 2D Dynamical Model for Investigating the parameters Affecting Whiplash Injuries
This paper proposes a 2D dynamical model for evaluating parameters affecting whiplash. In fact a four segment dynamical model is developed in the sagittal plane for the analysis. The model response is validated using the existing experimental data and is shown to simulate the "S-Shape" and "initial upward ramping" kinematics of the cervical spine and the resulting dynamics observed in human and...
متن کاملWhat occupant kinematics and neuromuscular responses tell us about whiplash injury.
STUDY DESIGN Literature-based review. OBJECTIVE To review the published data on occupant kinematic and neuromuscular responses during low-speed impacts and analyze how these data inform our understanding of whiplash injury. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA A stereotypical kinematic and neuromuscular response has been observed in human subjects exposed to rear-end impacts. Combined with various mo...
متن کاملCervicogenic headache after whiplash injury.
Cervicogenic headache (CEH) with pain radiating from the neck to the forehead is a common finding after whiplash injury. In most whiplash studies, the whiplash headaches are not defined. Post-whiplash CEH typically is a moderate headache with a benign, but often prolonged course. It probably is unilateral and bilateral. Reduced neck mobility does not seem to be as common after whiplash as in ch...
متن کاملWhiplash Injury Might Reduce Lumbar Spine Range of Motion Following Trauma
Whiplash is the common denominator of a syndrome consisting of several disorders affecting different body areas, termed whiplash-associated disorders. One of the most common such disorders in low back pain. While the occurrence of low back pain following whiplash is well known, little is known regarding the effect of whiplash on spinal range of motion. The current study quantitatively assessed ...
متن کاملFive years after the accident, whiplash casualties still have poorer quality of life in the physical domain than other mildly injured casualties: analysis of the ESPARR cohort
BACKGROUND This study aims to compare health status and quality of life five years after a road accident between casualties with whiplash versus other mild injuries, to compare evolution of quality of life at 1 and 5 years after the accident, and to explore the relation between initial injury (whiplash vs. other) and quality of life. METHODS The study used data from the ESPARR cohort (a repre...
