Abstract:
IntroductionSince 2009 automatic crash notification system(ACNS) using event data recorder(EDR) and mobile communication have been developed for early detection of traffic accident and prediction of physical injury of victims for increase of survival rate via early medical treatment. For adequate prediction of injury, authors developed the guideline and algorithm from parameters related to accident and medical situation. Methods: Expert survey was done about the adequate parameters related to accident and medical situation. Medical record of traffic accident admission was analyzed in a trauma center of a university hospital in Seoul, Korea. Additionally epidemiology of traffic accident death in a region was done. Afterwards data of medical record was linked to data of traffic accident insurance companies.ResultsThe important parameters for prediction of physical injury of victims were as follows: Intercept, deltav, belt, age, intrus, sex, multiple, roll, ejection, narrow, height, weight, steering defect, track loc.ConclusionsPrediction of physical injury severity of victims on traffic accident spot and immediate transfer of related information to adequate medical institution by automatic mobile communication can help the traffic accident victims and upgrade the trauma care system of traffic accident.

Abstract:
Traffic accidents are one of the main causes of the highest increase in mortality in Indonesia. This problem needs attention to anticipate the fall of the death toll in a traffic accident. So in this study, there are response variables and several predictor variables. The purpose of this study was to find out what factors influence the severity of traffic accident victims in Ambon city based on categories and model the severity of traffic accident victims in Ambon city based on significant factors using the Multinomial Logistic Regression method. In this study, the results obtained are factors that significantly affect the severity of the traffic accident victims are sex variables (X1), age (X1), education (X3) and type of vehicle (X5).

Abstract:
BackgroundPsychological debriefing is widely used for trauma victims but there is uncertainty about its efficacy. We have previously reported a randomised controlled trial which concluded that at 4 months it was ineffective.AimsTo evaluate the 3-year outcome in a randomised controlled trial of debriefing for consecutive subjects admitted to hospital following a road traffic accident.MethodPatients were assessed in hospital by the Impact of Event Scale (IES), Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI) and questionnaire and re-assessed at 3 months and 3 years. The intervention was psychological debriefing as recommended and described in the literature.ResultsThe intervention group had a significantly worse outcome at 3 years in terms of general psychiatric symptoms (BSI), travel anxiety when being a passenger, pain, physical problems, overall level of functioning, and financial problems. Patients who initially had high intrusion and avoidance symptoms (IES) remained symptomatic if they had received the intervention, but recovered if they did not receive the intervention.ConclusionsPsychological debriefing is ineffective and has adverse long-term effects. It is not an appropriate treatment for trauma victims.

Abstract:
Background: Some accident victims report poorer sleep during the months after the trauma, which may double the risk for and is a mediator of the development of a PTSD. Furthermore, subjective and objective sleep measures are often discrepant in PTSD-patients, which is why a ‘sleep state misperception’ of PTSD patients is often hypothesized. Objective: The goal of this study is to assess differences in sleep quality in victims of a traffic accident compared to healthy participants without an accident history as well as differences between objective and subjective sleep quality measures. Methods: We recruited 25 hospitalized accident victims within ten days of an accident and 31 age and sex-matched controls without an accident history. Three months later, participants were given a structured clinical interview (SCID), they completed the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) for the previous two weeks, wore a wrist actigraph, and kept a sleep log for two consecutive nights. Results: At the three-month follow-up, none of the victims met the criteria for any kind of mental disorder, but scored higher on the Posttraumatic Diagnostic Scale. On the PSQI they reported slightly worse sleep than controls for the previous two weeks, although sleep log and actigraphy measures on the two recording nights showed no group differences. Actigraphy measures showed shorter sleep onset latencies compared to log measures. Conclusions: The accident victims suffered only minimal sleep disturbances three months later. The assumption of a ‘sleep state misperception’ in traffic accident victims is questioned by these results.

Abstract:
Many people who play an important role in providing first aid to traffic accident victims still prefer not to approach when an accident occurs. So that the purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between knowledge and attitudes of the community in first aid to traffic accident victims. Methods: This research was conducted on 82 respondents who live close to Beji Highway, Beji Village, Junrejo District, Batu City from October 2020 to March 2021 using a correlation description design with a cross sectional approach. The instrument used is divided into 3 instruments with data collection tools in the form of a questionnaire consisting of demographic data, knowledge, and attitude questionnaires. The data collected were identified using the Spearman Correlation statistical test. Results: The majority of respondents have less knowledge (n=46, 56%) and have a negative attitude in first aid to traffic accident victims (n=81, 99%). Based on the results of the Spearman correlation test, the significance value (0.000) < (0.05) means that there is a relationship between knowledge and public attitudes in first aid for traffic accident victims with a moderate relationship strength (0.536) and a positive relationship direction, namely if knowledge increases the attitude of the people also increases. Conclusion: There is a relationship between knowledge and public attitudes in first aid to traffic accident victims.

Abstract:
Background: A Road Traffic Accident (RTA) is any injury due to crashes originating from, terminating with or involving a vehicle partially or fully on a public road. It is one of the leading causes of global disease burden. Road traffic accidents, injuries and fatalities are causing great concern to the community in Bangladesh. To find out the characteristics of road traffic accident cases attending in Combined Military Hospital Ramu, this research work was planned. Materials and methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted at Combined Military Hospital Ramu.All the road traffic accident victims attending at Medical Inspection room (MI Room) of CMH Ramu from April 2019 to September 2019 irrespective of age and sex . All the victims entered in the ‘special event statement register’. There were 119 Road Traffic Accident victims enlisted and selected by purposive type of sampling technique. Results: Mean age of the respondents was 28.77 ± 5.14 years. Out of 119 respondents, majority (26.9%) were in the age group of 31-40 years. Among the victims, 99.2% were motorized accident. Majority (33.6%) were due to Bus or Minibus accident, 43.8% victims were motor vehicle passenger. The highest 49.6% victims were passenger, followed by 31.9% were pedestrian. Regarding pattern of injury, majority 39.5% victims sustained Laceration and Cut injury. Majority of the accident (50.9%) happened in the main road, 33.6% happened during Noon (1000-1400 hrs) time, followed by 27.7% at afternoon (1400-1800 hrs) time. Conclusion: Among the victims, most of them were male and majority of them were within the active age group. Most of accidents by motorized vehicles by Bus or minibus. Pedestrians and motor vehicle passengers were most vulnerable. Cut injury and Laceration were the most common type of injury. Main roads were the commonest site and accident occurred more during the day. IAHS Medical Journal Vol 4(2), December 2021; 12-16

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction: Motor vehicles have transformed human life in radical and contradictory ways. At the same time that cars have brought comfort and ease to human life, they are also a main cause of trauma, pain, disability, and death worldwide. Objective: To investigate the quality of life and self-esteem of traffic accident victims undergoing physical rehabilitation. Methods: This was a controlled, cross-sectional study that compared quality of life and self-esteem among traffic accident victims in physical therapy with other accident victims, physical therapy patients for other causes, and the general population. Results: The self-esteem of individuals undergoing physical therapy due to traffic accidents was lower compared to victims of other accidents and those in physical therapy for other reasons (p < 0.05). Regarding quality of life, the study group sample obtained the following mean scores: physical domain 48.1; psychological 52.8; social 68.1; environmental 54.1. These scores were lower than those of traffic accident victims who did not undergo physical therapy and of the general population in all domains (p < 0.05), but higher than that of individuals undergoing physical therapy for other causes, except in the psychological domain. Conclusion: Self-esteem and quality of life were low in traffic accident victims undergoing physical therapy. Physical therapy professionals can play an important role in improving these conditions provided they assume a humanized posture, practicing patient-centered rather than disease-centered health actions.

Abstract:
AbstractIntroduction:Sixteen percent of all motor-vehicle fatalities are pedestrian, and accidents involving pedestrians are associated with the highest morbidity and mortality rates. Classic pedestrian injury patterns have been described. However, it has been suggested that the pattern may differ if the pedestrian is intoxicated. The role of pedestrian intoxication on motor-vehicle accident injury patterns has not been well-delineated.Hypothesis:Intoxicated pedestrian traffic victims have an injury pattern that is more serious and more rapidly fatal than is the pattern for nondrinking victims.Methods:Autopsies of 223 consecutive pedestrian victims were reviewed and grouped according to the presence of alcohol in the blood: Group I, Negative (n = 165); Group II, Positive (n = 58). Gender, age, anatomic injuries, survival time, time of day, and year also were examined.Results:Results indicated that there were more males in Group II (79%) than in Group I (64%); younger victims, younger than 40 years old, in Group II (70%) than in Group I (34%); fewer victims older than 60 years old in Group II (8%) than in Group I (38%). Group II sustained more frequent and more severe injuries—two times the frequency of the cervical spine, liver, upper and lower extremity, pelvic and rib fractures and thoracolumbar spine injuries; three times more aortic injuries; five times more heart injuries. Death occurred within 24 hours in 95% of those in Group II and in 67% of those in Group I. Accidents occurred from 1500h to 2300h in 67% of Group II and in 53% of Group I victims.Conclusion:Intoxicated pedestrian accident victims are predominantly young men, struck between 1500h and 0700h; they have an injury pattern that is two to five times more serious than is the pattern for the sober victims.

Abstract:
Ordinal logistic regression is a statistical method for analyzing the respone variables that have an ordinal scale consisting of three or more categories. This method is an extension of logistic regression with a binary respone variable. In this study the cases studies was the severity of traffic accident victims in Buleleng. The severity of the victims were divided into three categories: minor injuries, serious injuries and died. This research also used six predictor variables, namely age, hours of accident, education, gender, the status of location, and the venicles involved. Result of study shows that the variables age, hours of accident, education and the status of location have a significan effect on the severity of traffic accident victims.

Abstract:
The overall aims of this PhD were to examine what the real effects of injury are on survivors of road crashes and to explore the methods used to assess these effects. Three studies were conducted for this thesis to explore the effects of injury using quality of life outcomes for survivors of road crashes. Study 1 was a prospective follow-up study of 70 road crash survivors with relatively 'minor' injuries. The aim of study 1 was to determine the effects of the crash or injury on quality of life for a 'minor' injury sample over a 1 year follow-up period. Study 2 was a prospective follow-up study of 50 'seriously' injured road crash survivors admitted to hospital as a result of their injuries. Study 3 incorporated the results of study 1 and study 2 to examine the societal burden of injury.

Abstract:
Conclusion. It is probably now appropriate to close a chapter in the history of public communication campaigning. Weaknesses which have usually been seen as instrumental can now be seen for what they are: conceptual failures grounded in compromised ontologies and false epistemologies. As I showed in the last chapter, even when viewed within their own narrow empiricist frame, public communication campaigns fail to satisfy a test of empirical efficacy. But empirical failure reveals a deeper moral failure: the failure of government to properly engage in a conversation with the citizens to whom they are ultimately responsible. Whether public communication campaigns are a symptom or a cause of this failure lies beyond the scope of this thesis. But there can be little doubt that the practice of these campaigns has encouraged the persistence of an inappropriate relation between state and citizens. The originators and managers of mass media public communication campaigns conceive of and execute their creations as persuasive devices aimed at the targets who have been selected to receive their messages. But we do not see ourselves as targets (and there are profound ethical reasons why we should not be treated as such), neither do we engage with the mass media as message receivers. On the contrary, as social beings, we become actively and creatively involved with the communicative events which we attend to and participate in; the mass media, like all other communication opportunities, provide the means for generating new meanings, new ways of understanding, new social realities. But people are constrained from participating fully in public discussion about social issues; the government's construal of individuals as targets and of communication as transmitted messages does not provide the discursive space for mutual interaction. Governments should aim to encourage the active engagement of citizens in public discussion by conceiving of and executing public communication as part of a continuing conversation, not as packaged commodities to be marketed and consumed, or as messages to be received. It is time to encourage alternative practices-practices which open up the possibility of productive conversations which will help transform the relationship between citizens and state. However, as I have argued in this thesis, changed practices must be accompanied by profound changes in thinking, otherwise we continue to reinvent the past. Communication practice is informed by the ontology of communication which is itself embedded within other ontologies and epistemologies. The dominant paradigm of communication is at present in a state of crisis, caught between two views of communication power. On the one hand it displays an obsession with instrumental effectiveness on which it cannot deliver. On the other hand-in an attempt to discard the accumulated baggage of dualist philosophy and mechanistic models of effective communication-it indulges in a humourless critique of language which, as Robert Hughes astutely observes, is little more than an enclave of abstract complaint (Hughes 1993:72). This thesis has been an attempt to open up a space for a new ontology, within which we might create new possibilities.

Abstract:
Hundreds of lives in India are lost each day due to the delayed medical response. In the present scenario, the victims completely rely on the passersby for almost every kind of medical help such as informing the hospital or ambulance. This project aims to automate the process of detecting and reporting accidents using accident detection kits in vehicles. The kit has a system on chip and various sensors which sense various parameters that change drastically during the occurrence of accidents such as the vibration levels, orientation of vehicles with respect to the ground. The accident is said to occur when these values cross the permissible threshold limit. As soon as this happens, the latitude and longitude of the accident spot is tracked using the GPS module present in the kit. The nearest hospital and police station is computed by the GPS module, which uses the latitude and longitude values as the input. The accident notifications are sent to the concerned hospital and police station over the web interface accordingly. The assignment of particular ambulance and the required traffic policemen to the accident cases is done using the web interface. The android application guides the ambulance driver as well as the policemen to the accident spot and also helps in the detailed registration of the accidents. The closest doctor facility and police headquarters is processed by the GPS module, which utilizes the scope and longitude esteems as the information. The accident warnings are sent to the concerned healing facility and police headquarters over the web interface as needs be. The task of specific rescue vehicle and policemen to the accident cases is finished utilizing the web interface. An intelligent analysis of the last five years' rich dataset uncovers the patterns followed by the accidents and gives valuable insights on how to deploy the existing resources such as ambulances and traffic-police efficiently. Various types of analysis are done to identify the cause-effect relationships and deal with this in a better way. Such technical solutions to the frequently occurring problems would result in saving many lives as well as making the cities safer and smarter.

Abstract:
Governments provide a wide range of services, and the digital economy provides both threats and opportunities in this sector. The Transport Accident Commission (TAC) is a compulsory, government owned and operated insurance scheme for third-party, no-fault liability insurance for transport accident victims, operated in Victoria, Australia. E-business has now been widely used in all sectors from small business (Loane, McNaughton, & Bell, 2004) to emerging economies (Li & Chang, 2004), and in very different industry sectors (Cagno, Di Giulio, & Trucco, 2004; Golden, Hughes, & Gallagher, 2003). Major steps forward and applications have occurred in retailing (Leonard & Cronan, 2003; Mackay, Altmann, & McMichael, 2003; Starr, 2003). Applications need to be highly customized as the business-to-consumer (B2C) and business-to-business (B2B) environments are very different, and requirements of industries such as retailing and mining, and indeed government, differ substantially (Carter, 2003; He & Lung, 2002; Rotondaro, 2002). Government provides a particularly different environment for e-business applications because government services are often delivered in monopoly circumstances, with no real profit motive behind them. At the height of the technology boom in October 1999, Tony Marxsen joined the TAC as head of IT to develop a new IT outsourcing contract for the organization as the current 5-year contract was due to end in July 2000. He quickly realized that the TAC IT systems were out of date, lacked IT process integration, and were constraining improvement in business processes, and that no significant investments had been made for some time. Renewing or redesigning the outsourcing contract, the basis for which he had been employed, would only be a short-term solution. The problem was that the cost of new infrastructure would be high, and return on technology investment would mainly be realized from redesigned business processes enabled by the new technology. Tony wanted to propose a business transformation, with process changes as well as significant investment in IT infrastructure. Together, these would take the TAC from 1970s technology into the 21st century. The problem was that their (investments in such transformation) payoffs are not easily and quickly achieved. Their value does not come from installing the technology; it comes from changing both operating and management processes—perhaps operating and managing cultures too. (Ross & Beath, 2002, p. 53) Tony knew he would have to win the support of the board and senior management, but he could not immediately give them a concrete business case for the investment. He also knew that any infrastructure investment had to be linked with a major process-improvement initiative from the start to avoid the double investment of building new applications to support old processes, and then undertaking major modifications or even replacement when the need for improvement became obvious to the board and management team. He compared investing in IT infrastructure to rewiring and replumbing your house: as far as visitors are concerned, there’s no visible difference, everything’s behind the walls, but as the owner you get the benefits of things like cheaper electricity and water bills because of efficiencies in the new redesigned systems. The problem is convincing people that they will get these results in the future, but that they need to hand over the money now, when there’s no hard evidence for the benefits they’ll get, just a bunch of assumptions and no guarantees. It’s a big ask for any Board. (Marxsen, personal communication, September 4, 2003) Tony knew that the first hurdle he would have to overcome would be getting the board to agree to give him the opportunity to put together a team to develop a business case for the board’s further consideration.

Abstract:
Insurance in general and civil liability insurance, as part of it, is an infrastructure that helps increase the efficiency of all areas of business. This determines the importance of the development of all types of insurance in Ukraine, taking into account the process of Ukraine’s integration into the world community. The development of insurance business in our country should be based on the study and balanced use of experience of industrialized countries with long traditions of insurance market organization, legal regulation of insurers and diversification of various types of insurance [2].The world community, however, has invented a universal means of redress, which is the most popular type of liability insurance worldwide – civil liability insurance for owners of land vehicles. It provides for the payment of monetary compensation to the victim in the amount that would be collected from the owner of the vehicle on a civil claim in favor of a third party for damage to life and health, as well as for damage or loss of property due to an accident or other road -transport (accident) due to the fault of the insured. Given the state and prospects of motorization in our country, as well as foreign experience in insurance, we can say with confidence that liability insurance is one of the leading areas among other types of insurance. However, in its organization and implementation there are many different problems of legal, social, economic and organizational nature. The subject of the study is the economic relations that arise in the protection of property interests of persons injured in traffic accidents caused by the fault of the insured. The purpose of the work is a theoretical and practical study of the features of civil liability insurance of vehicle owners and determine on this basis the problems and prospects for the development of motor insurance in our country.In accordance with the set goal, the following tasks were identified: to determine the economic essence and benefits of civil liability insurance of vehicle owners; to consider the experience of foreign countries in the field of liability insurance and the possibility of its introduction in Ukraine; to analyze the current state of motor insurance in Ukraine; identify problems of development of civil liability insurance of vehicle owners in Ukraine and predict the directions of their solution, taking into account foreign experience; provide proposals to improve the efficiency of insurance activities.The scientific novelty of the obtained results is the substantiation of theoretical and methodological bases of strategic development of civil liability insurance of vehicle owners in Ukraine, which allowed to obtain practical and theoretical results that contain scientific novelty, in particular: generalized features of comparative characteristics of liability insurance , property insurance and personal insurance and on the basis of the analysis the essential differences of liability insurance from other branches of insurance are defined that allows to state definitively that liability insurance is an independent branch of insurance; proved a specific feature of liability insurance, which is that the object of insurance is not specific personal property of a citizen or organization, as in property insurance, and the occurrence of events related to life or ability to work of a citizen who entered into a contract, which is typical for personal insurance, and liability to third parties. Thus, the direct object of liability insurance is the economic interest of potential victims, who in each insured event finds a specific monetary expression; the necessity of digitalization of the liability insurance industry is substantiated. Based on the study, it is proved that marketing innovations in motor insurance relate to new sales channels. Today, such a sales channel is the online sale of insurance products, which allows the insured to draw up a contract online, choose the functions that belong to him and pay insurance premiums. At the micro level, innovative development is seen as the process of implementing innovative solutions by insurers that help strengthen their competitiveness, create a unique insurance product for each policyholder individually, improve insurance services and more. Practical significance of the obtained results is to develop and provide recommendations for improving the civil liability insurance of vehicle owners, taking into account the experience of foreign countries.

Abstract:
Air transport can solve road traffic congestion problems in emergency situations in order to quickly and efficiently assist accident victims through solutions from transport policy makers. This work presents a prototype as a use case, to determine the main points of accidents on the federal highways of Paraná, as well as the main air resources and health units for caring for serious victims. In particular, as a methodology, we used an exploratory data analysis in conjunction with the KNN-based algorithm to define the main strategic locations and regions to allocate air resources to attend to the occurrences in the best possible way, as well as define the available hospital and the flight plan to proceed to the destination. The study also presents the top ten locations with the highest number of accidents, along with the three priority regions, in order to optimize care.

Abstract:
In the last five years, the number of accidents that have been occurred in Palembang, South Sumatra Province reached 7.016 incidents. This research aims to discover the characteristics of traffic accidents and accident-prone (black spot) locations. The characteristic of a traffic accidents will be analyzed by questionnaire, while the black spot analysis will be investigated based on the frequency (death, seriously injured), INDII Aus-Aid and AEK. The result of the components of accidents presented that the road users was the main factor of traffic accidents with around 83 %, 87% of incidents happened less than 3 (three) every month, and 47 % of the sacrifice of seriously injured, in which the highest gender victims was male (83%). The Black Spot analysis outcome at Soekarno Hatta Street located at STA 23 + 500, in which Soekarno Hatta Street experienced the most common traffic disaster with 110 of the circumstances were 31 casualty who passed away, 39 heavily wounded, and the material loss gained Rp. 10.439.901.000.

Abstract:
Objective: This study was conducted to find the epidemiological characteristics of bicycling-related maxillofacial fractures in a defined population, and identify factors contributing to injury. Methodology: A prospective study was carried out involving patients presenting with maxillofacial fractures sustained in bicycling-related accidents. Results: Between 908 of all cycling accidents attending for medical treatment, 122 patients (13% of all cycling accidents) were admitted with facial fractures between 2007 and 2014. Male and female ratio was 2.6:1, and the mean age was 29.4 years (standard deviation: 12.8, range: 12-79 years). Causes of injury included collisions (63%) and accidental falls (37%). The fracture patterns seen were mandibular (49%), zygomatic (32%), orbital (13%), nasal (7%), maxillary (2%), and frontal (2%). Condylar fractures were the most common of the mandibular fractures (63%). The most frequently observed concomitant lesions were orthopedic injuries. Conclusions: Bicycling-related maxillofacial injuries are common and therefore important to identify in order to design a sustainable transport system and for units that provide assistance to traffic accident victims. Missed diagnosis or delayed treatment can lead to facial deformities and functional problems. Wearing protective helmets and the improvement of the helmets design is one aspect that would be of interest for the prevention of injuries. Keywords: Cycling; bicycle-related trauma; maxillofacial fractures; risk factors; helmets.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/CIT2016.2016.3718

Abstract:
In 2019, approximately 29,000 children (up to 15 years of age) were involved in road traffic accidents in Germany. The cohorts with the most accident victims are the 11- to 14-year-olds, about half of whom (approx. 6,000 children) were involved in accidents by bicycle. The number of cyclists involved in accidents rises sharply after the transition from primary to secondary school. This is due to a change in driving behavior after the change of school compared to the primary school period. Many pupils start cycling to school after changing to secondary school. Furthermore, extensive behavioral changes occur with the onset of puberty, which, for example, increases the willingness to take risks in road traffic. SafeBike is a road safety program for the particularly vulnerable target group of 11 to 14-year-old cyclists based on observation procedures, self-reflection and personal responsibility. The basic aim of SafeBike is to raise students' awareness of danger perception when cycling, leading to an increased sense of safety in the short term, so that in the long term the number of cycling accidents in the target group will decrease. After participating in the program, students are expected to be more critical of their own behavior, among other things. SafeBike consists of three components: a self-assessment of one's own driving behavior in terms of safety, the treatment of several subject areas in which driving errors and traffic conflicts occur more frequently, and a final re-assessment of one's own driving behavior.The traffic effects of the program were surveyed and evaluated in a pilot test at two different schools in Germany. In the post-surveys, the test group committed about 50% fewer traffic conflicts and driving errors than the control group, which attests to the very high short-term effectiveness of SafeBike. In the control group, who did not complete the program, no significant improvements occurred in comparison to the before survey, in contrast to the subject group. In the test group, there were significant positive effects, especially in the case of driving errors that occurred particularly frequently in the pre-surveys and were correspondingly addressed in the program and discussed by the students. Particularly high positive effects were achieved with conversations while driving, at the pedestrian crossing and using the pavement on the wrong side of the road. Medium effects were achieved with hand signals and looking around. This means that the road safety program can be used in road safety education throughout the country. However, long-term effects are not yet available and must be determined in further studies.
