The indemnity for the consequences of a whiplash injury on the cervical spine by the Swiss Insurance against Accidents is discussed. The number of these cases can be only roughly extimated. We can calculate yearly with about 600 distortions of the cervical spine resulting from motoring accidents. The definition of the whiplash injury is defined on the base of recent German literature. The supposed mechanical assumptions for a lesion of the cervical spine are based mainly on the works of Erdmann (Frandfurt). The relations between the lesion of the cervical spine an the rebound injuries of the skull are discussed. The significance of the preexistent degenerative alterations of the cervical spine in the whiplash injury and the problem of the psychogenic superposition are presented by means of 46 observed cases.
讨论了瑞士意外事故保险对颈椎挥鞭样损伤后果的赔偿问题。此类病例的数量只能大致估算。我们可以算出，每年约有600起因交通事故导致的颈椎扭伤。挥鞭样损伤的定义基于近期德国文献。颈椎损伤的假定力学假设主要基于埃德曼（法兰克福）的研究成果。讨论了颈椎损伤与颅骨反弹伤之间的关系。通过46例观察病例阐述了颈椎先前存在的退行性改变在挥鞭样损伤中的意义以及心理叠加问题。
