متن کاملPediatric bicycle-related head injuries: a population-based study in a county without a helmet law
BACKGROUND Head injuries are the leading cause of death among cyclists, 85 % of which can be prevented by wearing a bicycle helmet. This study aims to estimate the incidence of pediatric bicycle-related injuries in Olmsted County and assess differences in injuries between those wearing helmets vs. not. METHODS Olmsted County, Minnesota residents 5 to 18 years of age with a diagnostic code con...
