A retrospective study of horse riding injuries in Berkshire was undertaken over a one year period from November 1983. The information was obtained from the Ambulance Service, the Jockey Club and the St. John Ambulance Brigade. There was a total of 103 injured persons with no deaths. Information from the Jockey Club was compared with the other two groups, the former sustaining more limb injuries and the latter more head injuries. A questionnaire was sent to all 42 ambulance patients. Thirty-eight had radiographs taken, 16 of which showed a fracture. Forty-one were wearing some form of hard hat, but if a safety strap was available it was attached in 24 cases. The dangers of riding are highlighted and the importance of adequate protective clothing emphasised.
1983年11月起的一年时间里,对伯克郡的骑马受伤情况进行了一项回顾性研究。信息来自救护服务机构、赛马总会和圣约翰救护队。共有103名伤者,无死亡病例。将赛马总会提供的信息与其他两组进行比较,前者肢体受伤较多,后者头部受伤较多。向所有42名救护车送来的患者发放了问卷。38人拍了X光片,其中16人显示有骨折。41人佩戴了某种形式的安全帽,但如果有安全带的话,只有24人系上了。强调了骑马的危险性以及适当防护服的重要性。
