From: Outcome after severe multiple trauma: a retrospective analysis
Mechanism of Injury: In 27% trauma was caused by motor bike accidents, in 35% by car accidents, in 5% by bicycle accidents and in 16% by fall from a height. In 18%, other mechanisms were causative. Compared with other studies this is a rather high amount. Trauma Center Murnau is located in a holiday region near the Bavarian Alpes, where different kind of sports can be performed including fun sports like paragliding or mountain biking leading to a huge number of different injury mechanisms.
