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 کاملWhiplash injuries in Finland: a prospective 1-year follow-up study.
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to define how many whiplash injuries occur in Finland in traffic accidents and the degree of severity of these injuries using the whiplash-associated disorders (WAD) classification presented by the Quebec Task Force, and to define possible long-term health effects caused by whiplash injury as well as the duration of whiplash-associated sick-leaves. METHODS ...
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 کامل10 - Whiplash-associated disorders
Previous accounts used different terms – whiplash injury, hyperextension injury, acceleration injury, soft tissue neck injury, cervical strain, cervical sprain – to describe the lesion that may occur after and the consequences of a typical car accident: a rear-end motor vehicle collision. When a vehicle is struck from the rear, the occupants rarely have any warning and do not brace the muscles ...
متن کاملLong-term disability after neck injury. a comparative study.
Claims for personal injury after whiplash injury cost the economy of the United Kingdom more than pound 3 billion per year, yet only very few patients have radiologically demonstrable pathology. Those sustaining fractures of the cervical spine have been subjected to greater force and may reasonably be expected to have worse symptoms than those with whiplash injuries. Using the neck disability i...
