Abstract

In a vehicle accident, the occurrence of spinal injury can have a significant impact on life support and life of recovery. In general, spinal injury is required high axial compressive force and vehicle occupants behavior at time of collision are related. In this study, sampled 14 cases of thoracic and lumbar spine injury from 177 research data of the in-depth study by Nippon Medical School and Nihon University. Moreover, we analyzed for thoracic and lumbar spine injury trend. As a result, lumbar spine injury accounted for 79% of the thoracic and lumbar spine injury. Compressional fracture and burst fracture accounted for 46% of the lumbar spine injury. In the frontal crash and seatbelt wearing on vehicle accident, compressional fracture caused by hyper flexion at the passenger forward bending exercise. Burst fracture caused by pitching motion and thrust force at riding the curb.
