This study was undertaken to analyze the characteristics and risk factors relating to fatalities and injuries caused by paragliding.
The judicial examination reports and hospital documents of 82 patients traumatized in 64 accidents during 242 355 paragliding jumps between August 2004 and September 2011 were analyzed.
In these accidents, 18 of the 82 patients lost their lives. In the patients with a confirmed cause of accident, most of them were involved with multiple fractures and internal organ injuries (n=8, 44.4%).
We investigated the incidence of paragliding injuries, the types of the injuries, and the severity of affected anatomical regions. The findings are significant for the prevention of paragliding injuries and future research.
本研究旨在分析与滑翔伞运动导致的死亡和伤害相关的特征及风险因素。
对2004年8月至2011年9月期间242355次滑翔伞跳跃中64起事故造成创伤的82例患者的司法鉴定报告和医院文件进行分析。
在这些事故中,82例患者中有18例死亡。在事故原因明确的患者中,大多数涉及多处骨折和内脏损伤(n = 8,44.4%)。
我们调查了滑翔伞运动损伤的发生率、损伤类型以及受影响解剖区域的严重程度。这些发现对预防滑翔伞运动损伤及未来研究具有重要意义。
