abstract="OBJECTIVE  To investigate the incidence, mechanisms, types of injury, most affected  anatomical regions, and factors leading to injuries in trail bikers. <br><br>METHODS  This  was an observational, retrospective study analyzing 47 trail bikers. Data were  collected through application of a referenced morbidity survey (RMS), which included  information on injuries and their mechanisms. <br><br>RESULTS  The lesions with the highest  incidence were abrasion and bruise. The most affected anatomical regions were the  shoulders and knees. The most common injury mechanism was skidding or loss of  traction. <br><br>CONCLUSION  Trail bikers are exposed to risk factors and, consequently, to  falls; it is important to develop more protective equipment, especially for the  shoulders and knees.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
