Title: [Case reports of Davos avalanche accidents 1972/73-1987/88]. Author: Dorn W, Matter P. Journal: Z Unfallchir Versicherungsmed; 1993; Suppl 1():255-61. PubMed ID: 8123336. Abstract: The main aim of this analysis was to study from different point of views the registered accidents in whom people were involved caused by avalanches during the winter-periods 1972/73 to 1987/88. As a result of this study a Swiss register for all accidents caused by avalanches was produced. The final goal of the register is to compile centralized a most complete database on all the details of either the avalanche victims or of the accidents themselves. This database is to be used for further analysis of the accidents in order to provide more background information to discuss and to improve the primary care of these patients.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
