dc.description.abstractIt has been claimed that 85% of the neck injuries caused by car accidents are the result of rear-end collisions. This type of injury is called a whiplash injury, and its mechanisms are not completely understood due to the limited ability to diagnose them using X-ray or MRI. Biomechanical studies including research on injury mechanisms, injury criteria, neck kinematics and injury epidemiology were reviewed to investigate the details of whiplash injuries. Many different injury mechanisms has been studied and identified such as hyperextension of the neck, facet joint impingement, spine column pressure, and muscle strains. Possible injury criterions have been reported as The Neck Injury Criterion (NIC), Nij criterion, IV-NIC criterio, Nkm criterion, NDC criterion. / Yapılan araştırmalar sonucunda, araba kazalarında meydana gelen boyun yaralanmalarının %85’i arkadan çarpmalar sonucunda meydana geldiği bilinmektedir. Bu tür boyun yaralanmalarına “whiplash” ya da kırbaç yaralanmaları adı verilmektedir. Bu tür yaralanmalar yumuşak doku yaralanmalarıdır ve bilinen X-ray ve MRI teknikleri yaralanmanın teşhis edilmesi için yeterli gelmediğinden, mekanizması tam olarak anlaşılmış değildir. Biyomekanik çalışmalar, örneğin yaralanma mekanizması ve kriterleri, boyun kinematiği, yaralanma epidemiyolojisi vs. bu tür boyun yaralanma mekanizmasının anlaşılması için yapılmaktadır. Birçok boyun yaralanma mekanizması çalışılmış ve raporlanmıştır. Bu mekanizmalar boynun çok fazla ekstensiyon yapması, kaslardaki stresler, omuriliğin baskı görmesi, faset eklemlerde meydana gelen kayma stresleridir. Muhtemel boyun yaralanma kriterlerin bazıları ise The Neck Injury Criterion (NIC), Nij criterion, IV-NIC criterio, Nkm criterion, NDC criterion olarak tanımlanmıştır.
