[Morphologic aspects of angle grinder injury].

چکیده
Experiments were conducted on soft-tissue and bone preparations to determine the morphological characteristics of angle grinder injuries. The grinding effect of the rotating cutting-off wheel causes severances with local loss of tissue, resulting in tool-specific wound features. Superficial skin notches and (incomplete) severances of bony structures are of particular significance. Mutual trace transfer is a valuable means for determining the tool used and for interpreting the scene.

Penetrating facial injury from angle grinder use: management and prevention
Injuries resulting from the use of angle grinders are numerous. The most common sites injured are the head and face. The high speed disc of angle grinders does not respect anatomical boundaries or structures and thus the injuries produced can be disfiguring, permanently disabling or even fatal. However, aesthetically pleasing results can be achieved with thorough debridement, resection of wound...
متن کاملA multidisciplinary approach to management of extensive facial injuries resulting from the use of an angle grinder
Angle grinders utilise a rapidly rotating metal or carbon disc to cut, grind and polish metal, concrete and other hard surfaces. Improper use with disregard to safety procedures can result in serious injuries, most commonly involving the face and upper limbs. Although these injuries can be mutilating, they are rarely fatal and inmost patients a good aesthetic result is achievable with meticulou...
متن کاملImproved Noise Minimum Statistics Estimation Algorithm for Using in a Speech-Passing Noise-Rejecting Headset
This paper deals with configuration of an algorithm to be used in a speech-passing angle grinder noise-canceling headset. Angle grinder noise is annoying and interrupts ordinary oral communication. Meaning that, low SNR noisy condition is ahead. Since variation in angle grinder working condition changes noise statistics, the noise will be nonstationary with possible jumps in its power. Studies ...
متن کاملThe jaw of the worm: GTPase-activating protein EAT-17 regulates grinder formation in Caenorhabditis elegans.
Constitutive transport of cellular materials is essential for cell survival. Although multiple small GTPase Rab proteins are required for the process, few regulators of Rabs are known. Here we report that EAT-17, a novel GTPase-activating protein (GAP), regulates RAB-6.2 function in grinder formation in Caenorhabditis elegans. We identified EAT-17 as a novel RabGAP that interacts with RAB-6.2, ...
متن کاملAn evaluation of on-tool shrouds for controlling respirable crystalline silica in restoration stone work.
OBJECTIVES The task of grinding sandstone with a 5-inch angle grinder is a major source of exposure to respirable crystalline silica (RCS), known to cause diseases such as silicosis and lung cancer among workers who work with these materials. A shroud may be a suitable engineering control for this task. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effectiveness of four commercially availab...
