Abstract:

Optimal seatbelt practices for pregnant women with twins at different gestational ages remain uncertain. To offer recommendations for a comfortable seatbelt system, this cross-sectional observational study explored seatbelt usage and driving habits among women with twins across various pregnancy stages through an online survey that explored driving conditions and comfortable seatbelts at different stages of pregnancy. Women who drove daily before their pregnancy with twins decreased their driving frequency as the pregnancy progressed. Correct seatbelt usage was lower and no seatbelt usage was

The aim of the study was to investigate the association between fatalism and seatbelt use. The sample included 100 Black and 100 White drivers recruited from shopping complexes and petrol stations in an urban area in the Northern Province of South Africa. Seatbelt use of drivers was recorded unobtrusively, and self-reported seatbelt use and belief in destiny (fatalism) were subsequently obtained by interview. A total of 44% Black and 50% White drivers (47% men and 47% women) were observed wearing their seatbelts. The majority of the drivers (84% of Blacks and 79% of Whites) did not have a fata

Abstract:

The use of seatbelts has increased significantly in the last twenty years, leading to a decrease in mortality from road traffic accidents (RTA). However, this increase in seatbelt use has also led to a change in the spectrum of injuries from RTA; abdominal injuries, particularly intestinal injuries have dramatically increased with the routine use of seatbelts. Such intestinal injuries frequently result from improper placement of the “lap belt”. We present 3 cases in which passengers wearing a seatbelt sustained significant devascularisation injuries to the small bowel requiring emergency surgi

Abstract:

Seatbelts are critical components of vehicle safety, continuously evolving through technological advancements and regulatory updates. Traditionally designed to secure occupants during collisions, seatbelt innovations, such as retractors, pretensioners, and load limiters, have significantly enhanced comfort and effectiveness. With the advent of autonomous vehicles, seatbelt systems must adapt to new safety challenges, including real-time tension adjustment through active seatbelt systems. These systems, integrated with active safety technologies like automatic emergency braking, offer a more co

Abstract:

Despite the importance of seatbelt use in the reduction of injuries and fatalities, the majority of past studies failed to account for the complex nature of seatbelts on the safety of roadways. The complexity of seatbelt use is especially related to a possible association between seatbelt use and other factors at the time of crashes. Ignoring those interaction terms might result in unrealistic or biased point estimates regarding the underlying impact of seatbelt use on roadway safety. For instance, is the impact of seatbelt use on the severity of crashes stable or varies based on other factors

Abstract:

With the use of seatbelts comes a unique injury profile that has been called “the seatbelt syndrome.” The classically described “seatbelt sign” has become a pattern of injury, describing potential underlying damage. As a clinician, clues to the underlying damage follow a thorough physical examination including the removal of all clothing to locate abrasions and bruises to the skin that potentially follow a seatbelt pattern. Delayed presentation of an intra-abdominal injury in the setting of a seatbelt sign has been well documented; however, the question is how long to observe these patients. W

Abstract:

Use of safety devices concerns human factors and safety personnel both as a practical matter of reducing injuries and saving lives and as a basis for studying theories of human behavior. Many reasons are given for non-use of these devices. Seatbelt use provides a good model for examining generally what factors affect safety behaviors. Slovic, Fischoff, and Lichtenstein (1978) suggested that failure to use seatbelts resulted from fear extinction, in that the effort required to fasten the belt was not reinforced and ultimately habit strength was reduced.

Abstract:

The aims of this study were as follows: the (a) creation of a pregnant occupant finite element model based on pregnant uterine data from sonography, (b) development of the evaluation method for placental abruption using this model and (c) analysis of the effects of three factors (collision speed, seatbelt position and placental position) on the severity of placental abruption in simulations of vehicle collisions. The 30-week pregnant occupant model was developed with the uterine model including the placenta, uterine–placental interface, fetus, amniotic fluid and surrounding ligaments. A method

AbstractIntroduction:Road traffic crashes (RTCs) are common in Qatar, and are now considered the third leading cause of mortality. In this study, the safety devices used by the Qatari public at the time of RTCs were assessed and the association between seatbelt use by vehicle occupants involved in RTCs and severe injury/death in the prehospital setting was determined.Methods:This study was a retrospective case-control investigation. A Hamad Medical Corporation Emergency Medical Services (EMS) database of RTCs occurring from January 2006 to April 2007 was utilized for this study, providing a to

Abstract:

The violation traffic laws by driving at high speeds, the overloading of passengers, and the unfastening of seatbelts are of high risk and can be fatal in the event of any accident. Several systems have been proposed to improve passenger safety, and the systems either use the sensor-based approach or the computer-vision-based approach. However, the accuracy of these systems still needs enhancement because the entire road network is not covered; the approaches utilize complex estimation techniques, and they are significantly influenced by the surrounding environment, such as the weather and phy

Abstract:

Social and cultural barriers associated with inequitable access to driver licensing and associated road safety education, as well as socioeconomic issues that preclude ongoing vehicle maintenance and registration, result in unsafe in-car behaviours such as passenger overcrowding. This in turn is associated with improper seatbelt usage, noncompliance with child restraint mandates, and driver distraction. For example, in Australia, where seatbelt use is mandatory, Indigenous road users are three times less likely to wear seatbelts than non-Indigenous road users. This is associated with a disprop

Abstract:

Wyoming has one of the highest fatality rates, and a significantly lower rate of seatbelt use in the United States. Thus, this study was conducted with the objective to investigate contributory factors to the choice of drivers’ seatbelt use. Various environmental factors and drivers’ characteristics were considered as it is expected that they account for unseen factors that impact drivers’ choice of buckling up. Although the mixed model has been used extensively for studying the impacts of seatbelt use on the severity of crashes, not many studies have been conducted regarding factors contribut

Abstract:

Most heterodimeric proteins are stabilized by intersubunit contacts or disulfide bonds. In contrast, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and other glycoprotein hormones are secured by a strand of their β-subunits that is wrapped around α-subunit loop 2 “like a seatbelt.” During studies of hCG synthesis in COS-7 cells, we found that, when the seatbelt was prevented from forming the disulfide that normally “latches” it to the β-subunit, its carboxyl-terminal end can “scan” the surface of the heterodimer and become latched by a disulfide to cysteines substituted for residues in the α-subunit.

   Some drivers think that seatbelt is not important, and some even not wearing it when driving a car. The awareness of using a seatbelt is questionable around the world. Even there are enough enforcement and rules, people may tend to forget or just ignore it. Some factors can lead or prevent someone from using a seatbelt, somehow the essence is always within the individual itself. This research discovered the seatbelt awareness among drivers that lives in the rural area. This research was done in Perlis, and a cross-sectional design was adopted in this study. The result reve

Background: Seatbelts have reduced the number of fatal head, chest and abdominal injuries. They have, however, introduced a set of injuries comprising abdominal wall bruising, Intra-abdominal injuries, and lumbar spine fractures collectively termed the seat belt syndrome.
