N2  - A focused computer search of the NASS data for the years 1980 through 1992 was completed using Delta V Limited's Vehicle Crashworthiness Database (VCD). The CD was used to compile a list of crashes in which the driver and/or occupant(s) of the collision vehicle sustained pelvic fracture(s), or a combination of pelvic and acetabular fracture(s)/dislocation(s). All collisions analyzed were required to have a computed change in velocity during the collision, as well as data concerning injuries sustained by the occupants. The incidence of major pelvic injury was analyzed with respect to occupant seated position, age and sex of the occupant, AIS, principal direction of force, and change of velocity (delta V). Overall, significant results were drawn.     <p>Language: en</p>
