Long Term Consequences

Period

9 October 2017-2 October 2020

Project manager

Bengt Pipkorn

The FFI project Identification and Prediction of Injuries with Long Term Consequences aims to enhance understanding and evaluation of injuries leading to long term consequences with the purpose of developing countermeasure for enhanced protection. Specifically, the project targets to achieve an understanding of head and upper extremity injuries leading to long term consequences. The project will also gain an insight on the relevance of the ability of various head injury criteria to predict head injuries leading to long term consequences.
