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