  1. 21. Brain injury biomechanics in closed-head impact : studies on injury epidemiology, tolerance criteria, biomechanics and traffic injury prevention

    Författare :David Viano; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Closed-head impact; brain injury; biomechanics; injury mechanisms; tolerance criteria; epidemiology; and primary prevention.;

    Sammanfattning : Permanent disability from traumatic brain injury is a devastating consequence of traffic crashes. Injury prevention is a fruitful approach to reduce the incidence and severity of disabling brain injury. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Modelling and inference of relative collision safety in cars

    Författare :Anna Vadeby; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Collision; Mathematical model; Head on collision; Injury; Risk; Car; 91 Road: Vehicle design and construction; 91 Road: Vehicle design and construction; 85 Road: Personal injuries; 85 Road: Personal injuries;

    Sammanfattning : We propose a new mathematical model for relative collision safety in cars. Our present research is restricted to head-on crashes between two cars and we try to determine how much of the injury risk in a crash that depends on car model. The relative risks include the driver populations of the different car models. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Clincal Aspects of Biological Brain Damage Markers

    Författare :Johan Undén; Neurokirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biomarkers markers; traumatologi; Neurology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; orthopaedics; traumatology; Surgery; intensivvård; Anestesiologi; intensive care; hematoma haematoma; Anaesthesiology; epidural; extracerebral; neurointensive care; head injury; stroke; APC APC-PCI; GFAP; NSE; S100 S-100 S100B S100BB; neuropsychology; neurophysiology; Neurologi; neuropsykologi; neurofysiologi; brain damage injury; serum;

    Sammanfattning : Biomarkers for organ damage and/or dysfuntion are used in almost all areas of medicine. The brain has eluded this technological development for some time. Recently, the S100B protein has been shown to be a promising marker of brain damage. However, before S100S can reach clinical reality, several problems must be solved. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Addressing Female Whiplash Injury Protection - A Step Towards 50th Percentile Female Rear Impact Occupant Models

    Författare :Anna K Carlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; anthropometry; dynamic response; head restraint; dummy; volunteers; whiplash; female; crash test; rear impact; neck injury; occupant model;

    Sammanfattning : Whiplash Associated Disorder (WAD) – commonly denoted whiplash injury – to vehicle occupants involved in collisions, is of worldwide concern. These injuries occur at relatively low velocity changes, typically between 10–25 km/h, and in all impact directions. Rear impacts are, however, the most common in the accident statistics. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Influence of intracranial features on brain kinematics during head impact : biomechanical aspects concerning teleological protection of the brain

    Författare :Johan Ivarsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; lateral ventricles; impact biomechanics; skull base; brain kinematics; head injury; natural protection;
