Trends in Arkansas motorcycle trauma after helmet law repeal   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to assess the impact of the 1997 Arkansas helmet law repeal on motorcycle registrations, crash and fatality risks, and alcohol involvement in motorcycle crashes. METHODS: Annual motorcycle registration data for the years 1990 through 2001 were obtained from the Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration. These motorcycle registration data were complemented by the motorcycle crash data from the Arkansas State Police Highway Safety Office and motorcycle fatality data for the state of Arkansas from the Fatality Analysis Reporting System. The impact of the repeal on crash rates, helmet usage, and alcohol involvement was assessed through comparisons of data from before (1993 to 1996) and after (1998 to 2001) the repeal. RESULTS: After the repeal, an increase in motorcycle registrations correlated with a marked rise in the total number of crashes and fatalities; however, fatalities per crash remained virtually the same. The proportion of motorcycle fatalities that were not wearing a helmet increased from 47.0% (47/100) before the repeal to 78.2% (104/133) after the repeal (P = 0.001). The overall percentage of fatal motorcycle crashes involving alcohol use remained unchanged after the repeal (37.6% [29/77] to 38.5% [40/104], P = 0.91), but the percentage of fatal crashes involving drinking nonhelmeted drivers increased from 14.2% (11/77) to 33.6% (35/104) (P = 0.003). Inebriated motorcyclists killed in crashes were overwhelmingly non-helmeted (87.5%, 35/40) after the repeal, up from 37.9% (11/29) before the repeal (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that the repeal of the mandatory helmet law in Arkansas has had a significant adverse effect on road safety.  相似文献

Introduction

Road traffic injuries caused by motorcycle crashes are one of the major public health burdens leading to high mortality, functional disability, and high medical costs. The helmet is crucial protective equipment for motorcyclists. This study aimed to measure the protective effect of motorcycle helmets on clinical outcomes and to compare the effects of high- and low-speed motorcycle crashes.

Methods

A cross-sectional observational study was conducted using a nationwide registry of severe trauma patients treated by emergency medical services (EMS) providers in Korea. The study population consisted of severe trauma patients injured in motorcycle crashes between January and December 2013. The primary and secondary outcomes were intracranial injury and in-hospital mortality. We calculated adjusted odds ratios (AORs) of helmet use and motorcycle speeds for study outcomes after adjusting for potential confounders.

Results

Among 495 eligible patients, 105 (21.2%) patients were wearing helmets at the time of the crash, and 256 (51.7%) patients had intracranial injuries. The helmeted group was less likely to have an intracranial injury compared with the un-helmeted group (41.0% vs. 54.6%, AOR: 0.53 (0.33–0.84)). However, there was no significant difference in in-hospital mortality between the two groups (16.2% vs. 16.9%, AOR: 0.91 (0.49–1.69)). In the interaction analysis, there was a significant preventive effect of motorcycle helmet use on intracranial injury when the speed of the motorcycle was < 30 km/h (AOR: 0.50 (0.27–0.91)).

Conclusion

Wearing helmets for severe trauma patients in motorcycle crashes reduced intracranial injuries. The preventive effect on intracranial injury was significant in low-speed motorcycle crashes.  相似文献

Background: Currently, less than half of all U.S. states require helmets for motorcycle operators. Although research has demonstrated the effectiveness of helmets, less is known about the characteristics of individuals who choose to ride motorcycles unhelmeted. Objectives: The specific aims of this study were to identify risk factors leading to riding and crashing a motorcycle without a helmet and to compare outcomes of helmeted vs. unhelmeted motorcyclists involved in a motorcycle crash. Methods: This 13-year (1994–2006) retrospective study of adult motorcycle crashes admitted to a Level II trauma center compares helmeted to unhelmeted motorcyclists. Results: There were 1738 motorcyclists admitted, including 978 (56%) helmeted (38 years old, 87% male) and 760 (44%) unhelmeted (38 years old, 85% male). Unhelmeted riders had a higher Injury Severity Score (16 vs. 13, p < 0.001), lower Glasgow Coma Scale score (13 vs. 14, p < 0.001), and more hypotension (6% vs. 4%, p = 0.03). Unhelmeted riders had worse outcomes, including higher rate of severe disability (16% vs. 10%, p < 0.001), more days in the hospital (7 vs. 6, p < 0.001) and intensive care unit (2 vs. 1, p < 0.001), incurred higher hospital charges ($44,744 vs. $31,369, p < 0.001), and had higher mortality (6% vs. 2%, p < 0.001). Independent predictors of riding without a helmet included alcohol intoxication, riding as a passenger, and lack of health insurance. Conclusions: Unhelmeted motorcyclists sustain more severe injuries and adverse outcomes. Motorcyclists who are intoxicated, uninsured, or passengers are less likely to wear a helmet. Education and prevention strategies should be targeted at these high-risk populations.  相似文献

Motorcycle crashes are associated with a high incidence of head injuries and fatalities. Helmets have been shown to decrease the risk and occurrence of both head injuries and fatalities in motorcycle crashes, along with a decrease in hospitalizations and healthcare costs. Many states have laws in place requiring all motorcyclists to wear helmets and have shown that laws directly affect these outcomes. Wisconsin is a state in which there is a law regarding helmet use; however, there are contingents. It is required only in those who are younger than 18 years and those with an instructional permit.  相似文献

Objectives:  Wearing a helmet is the single most effective measure for preventing head injuries in motorcycle users. The authors undertook this study to estimate compliance and determine reasons for noncompliance with helmet use among motorcyclists in their community.
Methods:  This was a cross-sectional survey of motorcyclists in three large randomly selected public-access parking spaces across Karachi, Pakistan's largest city. Questions covered personal demographics, frequency of helmet use, reasons for use or nonuse, and knowledge of local helmet laws. Analysis was based on frequencies and group comparisons using chi-square test or independent sample t-test.
Results:  Of the 300 (100% male) subjects, 169 (56%) reported using helmets regularly. Users listed injury prevention (78%) as the major reason for compliance, while nonusers listed physical discomfort (44%) and limited vision (25%) as the leading reasons for noncompliance. In univariate analysis, helmet users were significantly better educated than nonusers and were more likely to believe that helmets are protective (p = 0.002) and that passengers should also wear helmets (p < 0.001). The significance of these variables persisted in multivariate analysis. Several other variables (such as mean age, marital status, and knowledge of helmet laws) did not differ between users and nonusers.
Conclusions:  Helmets are underused by motorcyclists in the authors' community. This study underscores the need for improved helmet design, public understanding, intense public education, and rigorous law enforcement in raising compliance with helmet use and minimizing the risk of preventable trauma.  相似文献

Objective: To report the characteristics of head injury related motorcycle crash deaths. Methods: Motorcycle crash deaths with head injury (Abbreviated Injury Severity score ≥ 2) between 1 January 1998 and 31 December 1999 were identified from the Western Australia State Coronial Database. Demographics, incident and death locations, type of incident and role of unsafe riding behaviour were examined. Results: There were 39 deaths analysed (35 motorcycle riders and four pillion passengers). The median age was 29 years (range 9–64 years), with 22 deaths (56.4%) in the range 15–29 years and 92.3% of those killed being male. Twenty‐one motorcycle crashes were single‐vehicle crashes (53.8%). There were 25 deaths at scene (64.1%). Ethanol was implicated in 12 cases (30.8%) and other drugs were implicated in 11 cases (28.2%). Speeding was implicated in 12 cases (30.8%) and a lack of appropriate safety equipment was implicated in five cases (12.8%). One or more of the unsafe practices above was identified in 23 cases (59%). Overall, there was no difference in the rate of unsafe practices in single‐vehicle incidents compared with incidents involving another vehicle (P = 0.342). Ethanol was associated with 10 single motorcycle incidents (47.6%) compared with two (11.1%) involving another vehicle (P = 0.018). Unsafe practices were involved in 76% of at‐scene deaths, compared with 28.6% in those surviving to hospital (P = 0.007). Conclusion: A large proportion of head injury related motorcycle crash deaths are related to the unsafe behaviour of motorcyclists. A preventative campaign focusing on young male motorcycle riders and unsafe driving behaviour may reduce this death toll.  相似文献

PURPOSE: The purpose of this article is to communicate ways in which the nurse practitioner (NP) working with the pediatric population can incorporate bicycle helmet use education into the primary care setting. DATA SOURCES: Review of literature on bicycle helmets, safety, and head injury, retrieved from scientific journals and reliable Internet sources. CONCLUSIONS: Bicycling has become a popular sport for both children and adults. Despite excellent benefits, bicycling can pose hazards to riders when safety measures are not practiced. Head injury has been cited as the leading cause of death in bicycle-related injuries. The simplest and single most effective device available to reduce head injury and death is the bicycle helmet. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: NPs working with the pediatric population can have a profound impact on safety and health through promoting bicycle helmet use to both the child and accompanying parent during children's primary care visits. NPs can also become involved beyond the institution and act as role models for children, form coalitions, and serve as community advocates for new or stronger helmet legislation and enforcement of bicycle helmet laws.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The object of this research was to identify interactions among person, vehicle, and environment factors associated with crashes and injuries among older drivers. METHOD: We quantified risk factors and interactions for 5,744 drivers. RESULTS: Women had a high crash risk during mornings (8:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m.; odds ratio [OR] = 1.73, confidence interval [CI] = 1.40-2.14) or afternoons (2:00 p.m.-8:00 p.m.; OR = 1.74, CI = 1.41-2.15); alcohol-related crashes were the least likely to occur during mornings (OR = 0.19, CI = 0.12-0.31). The greatest crash risk with another vehicle occurred during afternoons (OR = 3.89, CI = 2.41-5.05). Injury had interactions with fixed-object crashes (OR = 427, CI = 182.9-998.24), no seatbelt (OR = 5.69, CI = 3.90-8.29), female gender (OR = 1.54, CI = 1.67-1.92), and mornings (OR = 1.40, CI = 1.01-1.94). CONCLUSION: An opportunity for crash and injury prevention research and shaping longer-range evaluation policies emerged.  相似文献

Road traffic accident mortality in Singapore   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The aim of this study was to identify factors that contribute to road traffic accident mortality and the patterns of injuries sustained by these victims, with a view to identifying areas for future intervention. All road traffic accident deaths that occurred in Singapore over a period of 1 year were reviewed. A total of 226 deaths occurred: 82.3% of the victims were male. The median age was 31 years. Blood alcohol was detected in 42 (18.7%) victims. In general, head (86.7%), followed by thoracic (67.7%) and abdominal (31.4%) injuries, were the most common injuries. Severe lower extremity trauma was most common among pedestrians and pedal cyclists (20.6% and 11.0%, respectively). The mean Injury Severity Score was 38.7. The relative risk of mortality between motorcyclists and motorcar drivers was 18.8:1. Suggestions for future prevention and intervention include stricter enforcement of speed limits, more severe penalties for drunk driving, helmet use among pedal cyclists, and the introduction of pre-hospital advanced airway management.  相似文献

While rollover crashes are rare, approximately one third of vehicle occupant fatalities occur in rollover crashes. Most severe-to-fatal injuries resulting from rollover crashes occur in the head or neck region, due to head and neck interaction with the roof during the crash. While many studies have used anthropomorphic test devices (ATDs) to predict head and neck injury, the biofidelity of ATDs in rollover has not been established. This study aims to build on previous research to compare the dynamic response and injuries sustained by four post mortem human surrogates (PMHS) to those predicted by six different ATDs in full-scale rollover crash tests. Additionally, this study evaluates injuries sustained by PMHS relative to possible contributing factors including occupant kinematics, occupant anthropometry, and vehicle roof deformation. While the vehicle kinematics and roof deformation were comparable for all tests, three out of the four PMHS sustained cervical spine injury, but only the tallest specimen sustained cervical spine fracture. Neck flexion at the time of head-to-roof contact appears to have affected cervical spine injury risk in these cases. Despite the injuries sustained in the PMHS, none of the six ATDs measured forces or accelerations that exceeded injury assessment reference values (IARVs), which adds to recent literature illustrating substantial differences between ATDs and PMHS in a rollover-like scenario.  相似文献
