Logging is a dangerous occupation, as documented through reported injuries and fatalities. Accidents in the logging industry account for pain, suffering, employee turnover, and high insurance costs. Worker injuries and high insurance costs, in addition to other factors, may be minimized and reduced through safety education and improved logging practices. Furthermore, the injured logger, or logger with a disability may return to logging or other employment through development of viable medical and vocational rehabilitation planing.

Animal-related injuries are common in rural areas. Agricultural workers can suffer severe injuries involving farm machinery or falls. The spectrum of injuries related to rural activities is poorly defined and characterizing these injuries will improve injury prevention efforts. Records for injured patients admitted between 2010 and 2013 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients with a mechanism of injury involving a large animal or with the injury site listed as “farm” were included. Patients with agricultural injuries (n = 85) were older with more multisystem injuries than patients injured by a

Abstract:
In 1983, there were more than 8,200 victims of fireworks-related injuries treated in US emergency rooms. Half of those injured were children less than 15 years of age, and 11% of the injuries resulted in hospitalization. The eyes are the body part most often injured, followed by hands and fingers. Burns account for the majority of injuries. Every type of fireworks legally available has resulted in serious injury or death. Firecrackers, bottle rockets, and sparklers contribute to the most hospitalizations. States that allow a wide variety of fireworks to be sold for personal use have a rate of

Highland dancing has many similarities to ballet. Anecdotally, highland dancers are prone to sustaining injuries to their Achilles tendon (AT), but very few studies have investigated these injuries. The aim of the study was to examine the incidence and treatment of Achilles tendon injuries in competitive highland dancers. Seventy questionnaires were distributed at two major highland dance competitions in Scotland. The questions related to number of injuries to the AT, history and treatment of the injuries, training techniques, and competition habits. Thirty-eight questionnaires were returned a
