Whiplash injuries sustained during a rear-end automobile collision have significant societal impact. The scientific literature on whiplash loading is both diverse and confusing. Definitive studies are lacking to describe the local mechanisms of injury that induce either acute or chronic pain symptoms. A methodology has been presented to quantify the kinematics of the cervical spine components by inducing controlled whiplash-type forces to intact human head-neck complexes. The localized facet joint kinematics and the overall segmental motions of the cervical spine are presented. It is anticipated that the use of this methodology will assist in a better delineation of the localized mechanisms of injury leading to whiplash pain.
在汽车追尾碰撞中遭受的挥鞭样损伤具有重大的社会影响。关于挥鞭样损伤负荷的科学文献既多样又令人困惑。缺乏确定性研究来描述导致急性或慢性疼痛症状的局部损伤机制。已经提出了一种方法，通过对完整的人体头颈部复合体施加可控的挥鞭样力来量化颈椎各组成部分的运动学。给出了局部小关节运动学和颈椎的整体节段运动。预计使用这种方法将有助于更好地描述导致挥鞭样疼痛的局部损伤机制。
