On scene injury severity prediction (OSISP) algorithm for car occupants.
Many victims in traffic accidents do not receive optimal care due to the fact that the severity of their injuries is not realized early on. Triage protocols are based on physiological and anatomical criteria and subsequently on mechanisms of injury in order to reduce undertriage. In this study the value of accident characteristics for field triage is evaluated by developing an on scene injury s...
متن کاملMuscular Stabilisation of the Head in Car Collisions
INTRODUCTION Frontal and rear-end collision with low speed are common accident mechanisms in situations with dense city traffic. During a rear-end collision the car occupant of the struck vehicle is pushed forward by the seat-back. Due to its inertia the neck is forced to an extension-flexion movement commonly called ‘whiplash’. To improve car safety mainly anthropometric test dummies (ATD) e.g...
متن کاملLower limb injuries to passenger car occupants.
A detailed examination was undertaken of hospitalized car occupants who sustained a lower limb injury in a frontal crash. The assessment included an analysis of the type, severity and causes of these injuries and mechanisms involved in lower limb fractures. The findings showed that fractures and dislocations occurred in 88% of lower limb injury cases, that more than half were from crashes < 48 ...
متن کاملObservational Studies of Car Occupants’ Positions
The use of current seat belts has been shown to be effective in reducing deaths and serious injuries to restrained car occupants by 50% compared to unrestrained. Real world accident studies have identified limitations to the performance of set belts. This has led to the next major evolution in restraint design which is the development of the intelligent restraints. The options for intelligent r...
متن کاملRisk of injury for occupants of motor vehicle collisions from unbelted occupants.
OBJECTIVE Unbelted occupants may increase the risk of injury for other occupants in a motor vehicle collision (MVC). This study evaluated the association between occupant restraint use and the risk of injury (including death) to other vehicle occupants. DESIGN A population based cohort study. SETTING United States. SUBJECTS MVC occupants (n = 152 191 unweighted, n = 18 426 684 weighted) s...
