Comparative Analysis of Traumatic Brain Injury Severity in Motorcycle and Car Accident Victims Treated at Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital.
J West Afr Coll Surg
August 2024
Neurosurgery Unit, Department of Surgery, Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital, Accra, Ghana.
Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the common causes of long-term disabilities, with about 10 million deaths annually.
Objectives: Our aim is to compare the severity and outcomes of TBI between motorcycle and car accident victims.
Materials And Methods: A prospective cohort study focusing on TBI patients.
STABLE trial of spectacle provision and driving safety among myopic motorcycle users in Vietnam: study protocol for a stepped-wedge, cluster randomised trial.
Trials
December 2024
Centre for Public Health, School of Medicine Dentistry and Biomedical Sciences, Queen's University Belfast, Belfast, BT12 6BA, UK.
Background: Traffic crashes are the leading cause of death globally for people aged 5-29 years, with 90% of mortality occurring in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). The STABLE (Slashing Two-wheeled Accidents by Leveraging Eyecare) trial was designed to determine whether providing spectacles could reduce risk among young myopic motorcycle users in Vietnam.
Methods: This investigator-masked, stepped-wedge, cluster randomised naturalistic driving trial will recruit 625 students aged 18-23 years, driving ≥ 50 km/week, with ≥ 1-year driving experience and using motorcycles as their primary means of transport, in 25 clusters of 25 students in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
Orthopaedic injuries and the use of protective equipment in commercial motorcycle couriers during the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic: A single level 1 trauma center experience.
Ulus Travma Acil Cerrahi Derg
January 2024
Department Of Orthopaedics And Traumatology, Haseki Training And Research Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey.
Background: The aim of our study is to analyze the orthopedic injuries and the use of protective equipment among commercial motorcycle couriers during the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in a level 1 trauma center in Istanbul, to provide epidemiological data, and to serve as a baseline for future studies.
Methods: Commercial motorcycle couriers involved in traffic accidents while working, and who were brought to the emergency department between April 2020 and April 2022, were included in our study. The protective equipment worn at the time of the accidents, including helmets, jackets, pants, gloves, and boots, were recorded.
Traumatic Anterior Hip Dislocation With an Open Book Pelvic Fracture and Femoral Artery Compression: An Atypical Case Report.
JBJS Case Connect
October 2024
Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, Fundación Valle del Lili, Cali, Colombia.
Case: A 34-year-old patient was involved in a motorcycle accident, resulting in an anterior hip dislocation associated with an open book pelvic fracture and compression to the femoral artery. He required an emergent closed reduction of the hip dislocation and open reduction and internal fixation of the pelvic fracture.
Conclusion: This case underscores the importance of maintaining a high level of suspicion for anterior hip dislocation, particularly in patients involved in motorcycle accidents, where a flexed, abducted, and externally rotated hip is common.
A decision tree model for traffic accident prediction among food delivery riders in Thailand.
Epidemiol Health
December 2024
Faculty of Public Health, Thammasat University, Lampang, Thailand.
Objectives: Food delivery riders (FDRs) play a crucial role in the food delivery industry but face considerable challenges, including a rising number of traffic accidents. This study aimed to examine the incidence of traffic accidents and develop a decision tree model to predict the likelihood of traffic accidents among FDRs.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with 257 FDRs in Chiang Mai and Lampang Province, Thailand.
