Abstract

Accidents with power take-off mechanisms often cause very serious injuries. In this study the clinical data and circumstances of the accidents of 14 patients who suffered a power take-off accident were analysed. From a total of 38 fractures, three primary and three secondary amputations were necessary. Fifty per cent of the accidents were due to human negligence, indicating the need not only for better safety shields but also for improved safety practices
