BIOPHYSICS OF ROTARY MOWER AND SNOWBLOWER INJURIES OF THE HAND: HIGH VS. LOW VELOCITY “MISSILE” INJURY

BIOPHYSICS OF ROTARY MOWER AND SNOWBLOWER INJURIES OF THE HAND: HIGH VS. LOW VELOCITY “MISSILE” INJURY

We have shown a basic biophysical difference between clinically similar hand injuries and suggest that some rotary lawn mower injuries more closely resemble high-velocity missile injuries. A treatment protocol is suggested.
