Résumé :

The article aims to describe the profile of elderly victims of falls and traffic accidents from the data of the Surveillance Survey of Violence and Accidents (VIVA). The VIVA Survey was conducted in the emergency health-services of the Unified Health System in the capitals of Brazil in 2011. The sample of elderly by type of accident was subjected to the two-step cluster procedure. Of the 2463 elderly persons in question, 79.8% suffered falls and 20.2% were the victims of traffic accidents. The 1812 elderly who fell were grouped together into 4 clusters: Cluster 1, in which all had disabilities

Résumé :

505 kindergarten and primary school children from 4 to 13 years of age were treated for school sports injuries during the period 1990–1997. The incidence of injuries increased statistically significantly from .5 per 1,000 children 4- to 5-yr.-old to 4.8 injured children per 1,000 in 12- to 13-yr.-old. 59% of the injuries involved upper extremities; 35% of these were in the wrist region. 33.5% of the injuries were of the lower extremities, with 50% being of the feet and 36.4% of the ankle. Accidental falls were the main situation (53%) in which school sport accidents occurred. Nearly 65% of the

Résumé :

Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is an injury located on the medulla spinalis, which could cause damage to the motor and sensory system. There are four mechanisms of accidents, which are traffic accidents, falls from height, sports accidents, and occupation-related accidents. Research regarding SCI caused by accident in Denpasar is still limited; therefore, to understand patients’ demography and clinical characteristics, further research is needed. Subjects and Methods: This research was a descriptive, cross-sectional research using total sampling and a prospective approach taken from the

Résumé :

AbstractIn their survey dated 2019, the UN predicts that the population above the age of 65 will increase from 9%, to 16% by the year 2050 [1]. Ageing results in the eventual loss of muscle mass and strength, joint problems and overall slowing of movements with a greater risk of suffering falls or other such accidents. Gait assist exoskeletons can help promote active ageing in this segment of the population. Since these devices are user specific in terms of the mechanics and control required, the facility to test different parameters becomes indispensable. This work details the design and construction of a modular test bench to implement synergies in an exosuit using motors and cables, and the optimization of the control scheme to better adapt it to specific patients.

Abstract Floor mats and runners are commonly used to protect floor surfaces, prevent exposure to slippery floor surfaces, remove dirt, grit and moisture from footwear and provide ergonomic relief to workers. Floor mats are often installed to prevent slip, trip and fall incidents. However, it has been estimated that annually about 38,000 adults over the age of 65 years old are treated in U.S. emergency departments for slip, trip and fall injuries associated with carpets and rugs.

Abstract Playgrounds have a number of key design elements intended to protect children from serious injuries. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) estimated that most playground equipment-related injuries occurred when a child fell from the equipment onto the ground [1]. It was estimated that in 1999 approximately 206,000 playground equipment-related injuries required a hospital emergency room visit [2]. Specifically, for children under five years of age there were 29.1 injuries per 10,000 children and for children ages 5 to 14 years old there were 34.8 injuries per 10,000 childr

Résumé :

This research studies the issues of intergenerational transfers in general and farm succession in particular in two different institutional environments. One is the relatively unregulated farm sector in the United States, and the other is the heavily regulated family farms in Israeli moshavim.
