N2  - BACKGROUND: Although the majority of trampoline injuries in children are minor, severe injuries occur as well. <br><br>METHODS: We have analyzed the risk factors, treatment and outcome of severe trampoline injuries treated in the Oulu University Hospital in children and the young between April and November 2105. <br><br>RESULTS: There was a total of eight severe injuries. Five injuries involved a danger of death. Almost all severe trampoline injuries resulted from an unsuccessful trick. A safety net was in use in half of the cases. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: All cervical spine injuries would have been avoided provided that the children would have refrained from doing a somersault on the trampoline.<p />  <p>Language: fi</p>
