What to expect? Injury patterns of Electric-Scooter accidents over a period of one year-A prospective monocentric study at a Level 1 Trauma Center

Andreas Harbrecht et al.

Summary: This study documented E-scooter-related accidents treated at a level 1 trauma center in a major German city over a period of 1 year. The majority of accident victims did not wear helmets, and most suffered multiple injuries, with the main injury sites being the upper and lower extremities as well as the craniofacial region.

A cranio-encephalic trauma due to electric-scooter accident: could the wearing of a helmet reduce this risk?

Giovanni Aulino et al.

Summary: The problem of road accident rates is now one of the most important health and social policy issues faced by all countries. Ridesharing companies launching electric scooters in Rome aim to reduce car traffic, but without relevant legislations, there is a risk of increasing deaths due to electric scooter crashes.

Injury patterns of e-scooter-related orthopaedic trauma in central London: a multicentre study

N. J. M. Dela Cruz et al.

Summary: Electric scooters are increasingly being used as a new means of transport in urban areas. However, there is a lack of published data on orthopedic injuries and user behavior patterns related to e-scooter use in the UK. This study aimed to identify the patterns and severity of orthopedic injuries associated with e-scooter use. The retrospective review found that e-scooters can cause serious injuries, particularly in males. Upper and lower limb fractures were equally distributed, with a significant number requiring operative intervention. The study also highlighted the low rate of helmet use among riders. As e-scooter use continues to rise, steps should be taken to ensure the safety of riders and the public.

Summary: Electric scooters have become popular personal mobility devices worldwide, but may result in injuries to riders and other road users. Current literature primarily consists of retrospective case series reporting clinical variables, with inconsistent reporting on injury circumstances and low rates of helmet use among electric scooter users.

Electric scooters accidents: Analyses of two Swedish accident data sets

H. Stigson et al.

Summary: The study focused on investigating injuries associated with e-scooters in Sweden, using two sets of data. Most injuries were from single crashes, but 13% involved injuries to another road user. Majority of accidents occurred during weekends and 46% of emergency department visits were due to accidents happening at night.

Characterization of electric scooter injuries over 27 months at an urban level 1 trauma center

Summary: This study provides risk stratification tools for modifiable risk factors associated with e-scooter injury morbidity. Factors such as injury type, age, alcohol or substance intoxication, and helmet use were found to be associated with the likelihood of major trauma or hospital admission. Individuals should prioritize using head protection and avoiding substance use while riding e-scooters to reduce the risk of injury.

Summary: A retrospective analysis in a major German city found that most e-scooter-related injuries had relatively low Injury Severity Scores, but there were still risks of sustaining severe injuries to the head, face, and extremities, particularly under the influence of alcohol or when illegally ignoring local laws.
