Long-term whiplash associated disorders (WAD) 1-3 sustained in low velocity rear-end impacts is the most common disability injury in Sweden. Therefore, to determine neck injury mechanisms and develop methods to measure neck-injury related parameters are of importance for current crash-safety research. A new neck injury criterion (NIC) has previously been proposed and evaluated by means of dummy, human and mathematical rear-impact simulations. So far, the criterion appears to be sensitive to the major car and collision related risk factors for injuries with long-term consequences. To further evaluate the applicability of NIC, four seats were tested according to a recently proposed sled-test procedure. 'Good' as well as 'bad' seats were chosen on the basis of a recently presented disability risk ranking list. The dummy used in the current tests was the Biofidelic Rear Impact Dummy (BioRID). The results of this study showed that NICmax values were generally related to the real-world risk of long-term WAD 1-3. Furthermore, these results suggested that NICmax calculated from sled tests using the BioRID dummy can be used for evaluating the neck injury risk of different car seats.
在瑞典，低速追尾碰撞中导致的长期挥鞭样损伤相关疾病（WAD）1 - 3是最常见的致残性损伤。因此，确定颈部损伤机制并开发测量颈部损伤相关参数的方法对于当前的碰撞安全研究至关重要。此前已通过假人、人体和数学后碰撞模拟提出并评估了一种新的颈部损伤标准（NIC）。到目前为止，该标准似乎对具有长期后果的损伤的主要汽车和碰撞相关风险因素敏感。为了进一步评估NIC的适用性，根据最近提出的雪橇测试程序对四个座椅进行了测试。根据最近公布的残疾风险排名列表选择了“好”和“坏”的座椅。当前测试中使用的假人是生物逼真后碰撞假人（BioRID）。本研究结果表明，NICmax值通常与长期WAD 1 - 3的实际风险相关。此外，这些结果表明，使用BioRID假人通过雪橇测试计算出的NICmax可用于评估不同汽车座椅的颈部损伤风险。
