Abstract

Bungee jumping is a relatively new recreational sport. Most emergency physicians and trauma surgeons have limited experience with its associated injuries. We report the case of a bungee cord attachment apparatus malfunctioning, resulting in a free fall of the jumper of approximately 240 feet. The presence of an air cushion on the ground prevented significant injury. Knowledge of the potential injuries of this new sport is crucial for effective management.

摘要

蹦极是一项相对较新的休闲运动。大多数急诊医生和创伤外科医生对其相关损伤的经验有限。我们报告了一起蹦极绳索固定装置故障的病例，导致蹦极者自由落体约240英尺。地面上有气垫，避免了严重受伤。了解这项新运动的潜在损伤对于有效处理至关重要。
