This study aims at showing if and to what extent injury severity in frontal car crashes increases with the age of front seat occupants. Data on 2658 belted drivers and front seat passengers in Volvo private car series 140, 240 and 740/760, involved in frontal crashes were extracted from the Volvo Car Crash Register.

Continuum, 2012
Although adherence to traumatic brain injury (TBI) guidelines has been associated with improved patient outcomes, guideline adherence remains suboptimal in practice. With neurologists becoming increasingly involved in specialized neurointensive care units and in the care of patients with severe TBI, familiarization with these guidelines is essential ...

The wish to predict outcome following injury is as old as human history, but the actual measurement of injury severity began only 40 years ago. Tools are now available to measure both physical injury [the Injury Severity Score (ISS)] and physiologic derangement [the Revised Trauma Score (RTS)], as well as their synergistic combination, into a ...

Abstract The measurement of injury severity is an essential element of the use of injury epidemiology for injury control. In any given year, virtually everyone experiences minor injuries, such as small scratches, bruises, and burns. Most of these heal with little or no treatment and do not interfere with one’s activities.
