| 摘要： | Objective: To examine injuries sustained in noncombat motor vehicle accidents (MVAs) during Operation Iraqi Freedom by injury nature, site, and severity. Methods: 348 military personnel injured in noncombat MVAs were identified from clinical records completed near the point of injury. Results: On average, personnel suffered two injuries per incident. The most frequent mechanism of injury was non-collision due to loss of control. Overall, 16% were injured in a collision incident and 19% in a rollover incident. Rollovers were associated with more severe injuries. Drivers had a higher frequency of head/neck/face injuries, whereas gunners and pedestrians had higher rates of extremity injuries. Conclusions: This analysis provides a thorough overview of injuries incurred during nonbattle MVAs in the combat environment. Future research should combine injury data with accident reports to elucidate areas for improvements in vehicle safety. |
