Abstract

Motor vehicle crashes are a leading cause of mortality and morbidity from trauma. Technological developments have lead to improvements in safety systems designed for motor vehicles. Current motor vehicle security sys¬tems such as seatbelts and the airbag are designed for adult-sized persons and may cause unexpected injuries in children with small body masses. In this report we present a case of SCIWORA in a patient associated with the deployment of an airbag during a motor vehicle crash.

Özet

Trafik kazaları mortalite ve morbiditenin önemli nedenleri arasındadır. Teknolojinin gelişmesi araçların güvenlik sistemlerinin de geliştirilmesine ve değiştirilmesine yol açmaktadır. Ancak güvenlik için uygulanan hava yastığı, emniyet kemeri gibi bazı materyaller, kazalarda beklenmedik yaralanmalara yol açabilmektedir. Araçlara uygulanan güvenlik sistemlerinin daha çok erişkinlere yönelik tasarlanması, trafik kazalarında bu sistemlerin çocukları korumasında sorunlar yaratabilir. SCIWORA (Spinal Cord Injury Without Radiographic Abnormality) özellikle travmalı çocuk hasta grubunda rastlanan ve önemli morbiditeye neden olan bir durumdur. Bu olgu sunumunda ön koltukta annesinin kucağında otururken trafik kazası geçiren, hava yastığı açılmasına bağlı SCIWORA gelişen olgu sunuldu.
