    Sammanfattning : BackgroundThe incidence of traumatic brain injuries (TBI) is about 500 cases per 100,000 inhabitants per year, a majority of which are mild TBI (MTBI). The incidence of whiplash injuries is about 300/100,000/year. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Temporomandibular joint sequelae after whiplash trauma. : Long-term, prospective, controlled study

    Författare :Hanna Salé; Annika Isberg; Per-Lennart Westesson; Umeå universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Whiplash-related injuries and manifestations, typically neck pain, following car collisions are known to potentially disable individuals with a high and increasing cost to society. There is limited knowledge regarding the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) sequelae following whiplash trauma. LÄS MER

  4. 8. 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

  5. 9. Treatment of whiplash associated disorders

    Författare :Aris Seferiadis; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; whiplash-associated disorders; systematic review; randomized controlled trial; McKenzie method; fear-avoidance; chronic pain; exercise therapy; basic body awareness;

    Sammanfattning : Whiplash injuries seem to have a substantial impact on health. Half the affected patients have persistent pain and disability and significant costs are incurred to society, mainly due to inability to return to work. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Whiplash Associated Disorders in Frontal and Rear-End Car Impacts - Biomechanical Guidelines and Evaluation Criteria based on Accident Data and Occupant Modelling

    Författare :Lotta Jakobsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; neck injuries; rear-end impacts; frontal impacts; WHIPS; whiplash;

    Sammanfattning : Whiplash associated disorders, also called whiplash injuries or AIS1 neck injuries, represent one of the most significant types of injury in car crashes regarding both frequency and long-term consequences. The injury mechanisms are not fully understood, thus making it difficult to design and evaluate protection systems in cars. LÄS MER
