Developing failure criteria for laceration injury of dermal tissue

Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 2023
Despite its importance, there is a poor understanding of human injury tolerance to trauma generally, and more specifically understanding of the mechanics of skin penetration or laceration. The objective of this analysis is to determine the failure criteria that will allow the evaluation of the laceration risk of blunt-tipped edges within a ...

Penetrating Injuries of the Neck

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1983
One hundred thirty-six patients with penetrating injuries of the neck over a 4-year period were studied prospectively. Seventy-two patients (52.9%) had no major physical signs on admission, 56 were observed without complications, and 16 had a negative exploration.

Retrospective evaluation of admission criteria for paediatric electrical injuries

Burns, 1995
In the medical community, the practice of admitting all electrical burns for 24-48 h of observation, monitoring and laboratory evaluation is widespread. This retrospective review of paediatric electrical burns was conducted to determine which patients may safely be treated as outpatients.

Injuries and Abnormalities of the Cervical Spine and Return to Play Criteria

Clinics in Sports Medicine, 2012
Cervical spine injury has a wide spectrum of consequences for the contact athlete, ranging from minimal to catastrophic. Because of the potentially grave sequelae of cervical injury, it is incumbent on team physicians or treating spine surgeons to be knowledgeable of postinjury treatment and return-to-play algorithms.

Development of Injury Criteria for Pelvic Fracture in Frontal Crashes

Traffic Injury Prevention, 2006
This article assesses the position-dependent injury tolerance of the hip in the frontal direction based on testing of eight postmortem human subjects.For each subject, the left and right hemipelvis complex was axially loaded using a previously developed test configuration.

High-yield roentgenographic criteria for cervical spine injuries

Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1987
All trauma patients undergoing cervical radiography at an urban referral teaching hospital emergency department during 12 consecutive months were analyzed for indications and results of cervical spine radiograph studies. Demographic characteristics of the study group were consistent with results in the literature (55% men, mean age, 27).

Injury Criteria and Motor Vehicle Regulations

2014
A historical review of frontal and side impact regulations in the U.S.A. and Europe has been conducted. The biomechanical bases of injury criteria utilized in these regulations have been examined. It is shown that the biomechanical database utilized in the current impact regulations are based on research conducted before the mid-1980s.

ACR Appropriateness Criteria ® Penetrating Neck Injury

Journal of the American College of Radiology, 2017
In patients with penetrating neck injuries with clinical soft injury signs, and patients with hard signs of injury who do not require immediate surgery, CT angiography of the neck is the preferred imaging procedure to evaluate extent of injury. Other modalities, such as radiography and fluoroscopy, catheter-based angiography, ultrasound, and MR ...
