  • Title: [Effect of protective helmets and head guards on localization of injuries to the skull and brain in cranio-cerebral injuries].
    Author: Davydov EA, Nirenburg RK.
    Journal: Zh Vopr Neirokhir Im N N Burdenko; 1978; (5):13-6. PubMed ID: 716743.
    Abstract:
    The results of post-mortem examination of 140 cadavers of persons who had died of craniocerebral injuries are appraised. It was established that in injury inflicted through a protective head-piece, the proportion of damage to the bones of the base of the skull, basally located structures of the large hemispheres and stem of the brain in the total number of injuries increases. The study is supplemented with mathematical calculations which explain the dependence observed.
