Injury recidivism among trauma patients may be related to an individual pattern of high risk behaviors. The extent to which an injury episode modifies this behavior pattern is unknown. A self report, voluntary, anonymous, cross sectional survey was administered to motorcycle and all-terrain vehicle (ATV) riders at a popular recreation site. Data included demographics, injury history, and current usage of helmet and protective gear. Two hundred eighty surveys were completed. History of ATV/motorcycle related minor and major injury were reported by 21% and 9%, respectively. Persons with a history of minor ATV/motorcycle injury only were less likely to use a helmet or protective equipment (78% v 74%, p = 0.58 and 49% v 41%, p = 0.29). Persons with a history of any major ATV/motorcycle injury were also less likely to use a helmet or protective equipment (77% v 56%, p = 0.03 and 48% v 40%, p = 0.53). These findings suggest a pattern of persistent high risk behavior among previously injured persons.
创伤患者的损伤复发可能与个体的高风险行为模式有关。损伤事件对这种行为模式的改变程度尚不清楚。在一个受欢迎的娱乐场所，对摩托车和全地形车（ATV）骑手进行了一项自我报告、自愿、匿名的横断面调查。数据包括人口统计学、损伤史以及头盔和防护装备的当前使用情况。共完成了280份调查问卷。分别有21%和9%的人报告有与ATV/摩托车相关的轻伤和重伤史。仅曾有ATV/摩托车轻伤史的人使用头盔或防护装备的可能性较小（78%对74%，p = 0.58；49%对41%，p = 0.29）。曾有任何ATV/摩托车重伤史的人使用头盔或防护装备的可能性也较小（77%对56%，p = 0.03；48%对40%，p = 0.53）。这些发现表明既往受伤者存在持续的高风险行为模式。
