摘要

根据头盔标准,自行车头盔的设计目的是防止颅骨骨折和相关的局灶性脑损伤。在受伤的骑车者中,另一种头部损伤是弥漫性脑损伤,但人们对自行车头盔对这些损伤的保护作用知之甚少。在此,我们研究了现代自行车头盔在代表一系列真实事故的撞击条件下防止弥漫性损伤和颅骨骨折的性能。我们还研究了头盔技术、价格和质量对防止这些病症的影响。在英国骑自行车的人中,最受欢迎的 30 个头盔的价格在 9.99-135.00 英镑之间。头盔在 6.5 米/秒的撞击速度和四个位置(前方、后方、侧面和前侧)对 45°砧板上的斜撞击进行了测试。我们使用了一种新的头型,这种头型比其他任何可用的头型都更能代表人类头部的平均质量、惯性矩和摩擦系数。我们测定了峰值线性加速度 (PLA)、峰值旋转加速度 (PRA)、峰值旋转速度 (PRV) 和 BrIC。我们还根据 PLA(线性风险)确定了颅骨骨折的风险,根据 BrIC(旋转风险)确定了弥漫性脑损伤的风险,以及它们的平均值(总体风险)。我们的结果表明,头部运动学存在很大差异:PLA (80-213 g)、PRV (8.5-29.9 rad/s)、PRA (1.6-9.7 krad/s2) 和 BrIC (0.17-0.65)。总体风险差别很大,保护性最低和最高的头盔之间的比率为 2.25。线性风险和旋转风险的比率分别为 1.76 和 4.21。9 个性能最好的头盔配备了旋转管理技术 MIPS,但并非所有配备 MIPS 的头盔都是性能最好的头盔。我们对三款测试过的头盔进行了比较,结果显示,MIPS 降低了旋转运动学,但没有降低线性运动学。我们发现头盔价格对暴露调整后的受伤风险没有明显影响。我们发现,头盔质量越大,线性风险越高。这项研究突出表明,在头盔设计和测试中,需要采用整体方法,包括旋转和线性头部伤害指标和风险。它还强调了向消费者提供头盔安全信息的必要性,以帮助他们做出明智的选择。

How Well Do Popular Bicycle Helmets Protect from Different Types of Head Injury?

Bicycle helmets are designed to protect against skull fractures and associated focal brain injuries, driven by helmet standards. Another type of head injury seen in injured cyclists is diffuse brain injuries, but little is known about the protection provided by bicycle helmets against these injuries. Here, we examine the performance of modern bicycle helmets in preventing diffuse injuries and skull fractures under impact conditions that represent a range of real-world incidents. We also investigate the effects of helmet technology, price, and mass on protection against these pathologies. 30 most popular helmets among UK cyclists were purchased within 9.99–135.00 GBP price range. Helmets were tested under oblique impacts onto a 45° anvil at 6.5 m/s impact speed and four locations, front, rear, side, and front-side. A new headform, which better represents the average human head’s mass, moments of inertia and coefficient of friction than any other available headforms, was used. We determined peak linear acceleration (PLA), peak rotational acceleration (PRA), peak rotational velocity (PRV), and BrIC. We also determined the risk of skull fractures based on PLA (linear risk), risk of diffuse brain injuries based on BrIC (rotational risk), and their mean (overall risk). Our results show large variation in head kinematics: PLA (80–213 g), PRV (8.5–29.9 rad/s), PRA (1.6–9.7 krad/s2), and BrIC (0.17–0.65). The overall risk varied considerably with a 2.25 ratio between the least and most protective helmet. This ratio was 1.76 for the linear and 4.21 for the rotational risk. Nine best performing helmets were equipped with the rotation management technology MIPS, but not all helmets equipped with MIPS were among the best performing helmets. Our comparison of three tested helmets which have MIPS and no-MIPS versions showed that MIPS reduced rotational kinematics, but not linear kinematics. We found no significant effect of helmet price on exposure-adjusted injury risks. We found that larger helmet mass was associated with higher linear risk. This study highlights the need for a holistic approach, including both rotational and linear head injury metrics and risks, in helmet design and testing. It also highlights the need for providing information about helmet safety to consumers to help them make an informed choice.
