Download or read book Evaluation of the Disability Determination Process for Traumatic Brain Injury in Veterans written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2019-05-20 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA) provides disability compensation to veterans with a service-connected injury, and to receive disability compensation from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), a veteran must submit a claim or have a claim submitted on his or her behalf. Evaluation of the Disability Determination Process for Traumatic Brain Injury in Veterans reviews the process by which the VA assesses impairments resulting from traumatic brain injury for purposes of awarding disability compensation. This report also provides recommendations for legislative or administrative action for improving the adjudication of veterans' claims seeking entitlement to compensation for all impairments arising from a traumatic brain injury.

Download or read book Assessment of Head and Neck Injury Potential During Aircraft Longitudinal Impacts written by Richard L. DeWeese and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The risk of head-neck injuries was evaluated for certain aircraft seat and interior configurations in aircraft longitudinal impacts. Two loading scenarios for the head-neck system were investigated: inertial (noncontact) loading in posterior-anterior and lateral direction using a forward facing seat and side facing couch, respectively, and contact loading through impacts of the head with typical aircraft interior components. The sled tests simulate an impact along the longitudinal axis of the aircraft; however, the seat orientation causes either forward or lateral occupant loading. The FAA Hybrid III was used in the occupant-forward impacts, and the ES-2 Anthropomorphic Test Device (ATD) was used in the occupant-lateral impacts. The ATDs utilized a unique 9-accelerometer array (NAP) bracket. Techniques were applied to derive rotational acceleration and velocity from the NAP. Head rotational velocities were cross-validated using photometric techniques. Both ATDs were also equipped with upper and lower neck 6-axis load cells. The restraint configurations investigated for inertial loading were a forward facing pilot seat with a 4-point restraint, a forward facing passenger seat with a lap belt restraint, and a side facing passenger seat with a 3-point restraint. The contact load configurations utilized a forward facing passenger seat with a lap belt restraint with either a passenger seat back or simulated class divider as impact surfaces. The neck injury potential was evaluated by the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards Nij criterion, using the neck loads at the occipital condyle level. The NAP data were used to evaluate head injury potential with multiple versions of the Head Injury Criteria (HIC), Skull Fracture Correlate, and the Brain Injury Criteria (BrIC). Neck injury was not a significant risk in most of the forward facing configurations tested; the only test with a Nij value above the limit also exceeded the HIC limit. For the side facing test configurations, neck injury was a significant risk, particularly for seating systems that did not provide effective upper body support. For head injury risk, significant differences were seen between the aviation and automotive versions of HIC. In several tests, aviation HIC was not calculated because there was no contact, but the automotive versions of HIC and BrIC suggest a risk of head injury. Overall, these results indicate that using both HIC and BrIC to evaluate seating systems could provide a safety benefit by directly evaluating the risk of skull fracture and traumatic brain injury."--Abstract.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine the risk of severe head and neck injury in short distance falls for a 12-month-old child. A series of free falls and falls from standing were experimentally simulated using an instrumented anthropomorphic test device (ATD) representing a 12-month-old child. Three different falls heights, five different impact surfaces, and two levels of joint stiffness were tested to determine their effect on injury risk. Linear head accelerations were measured and angular head accelerations were calculated using the base of the neck as the pivot point. Head Injury Criteria (HIC) values and impact durations were also determined for each fall. Neck loads were measured and used to compute Nij values to be compared with injury thresholds.

Download or read book Diseases and Injuries to the Head Face and Neck written by Michael Perry and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-02-16 with total page 1696 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a practically applicable guide to injuries, diseases, and disorders affecting the head, neck, and dental region seen within accident and emergency departments. These regions contain a number of specialized structures each with individual neural, muscular and vascular elements, meaning that the study of these anatomical areas is complicated and often quite daunting. Chapters in this work aim to break the treatment of such injuries and diseases into an easy-to-digest format via chapters featuring a symptom-based approach. Therefore, enabling the reader to quickly access the information they require when treating patients with a variety of disorders in the emergency room. Diseases and Injuries to the Head, Face and Neck: A Guide to Diagnosis and Management is a concise overview of how to deal with head, neck, and dental emergencies and is an important up-to-date resource for all medical professionals and trainees who encounter these patients.
