bending toward intention to the opposite side

when the occupant continues to move in the original direction of travel until they collide with the
interior of the vehicle or meet resistance. The third impact occurs when internal structures collide within
the body cavity.



What are the three factors that contribute to the damage caused by penetrating trauma's? - ✔✔✔The
point of impact, the velocity and speed of impact, and the proximity to the object.



What causes the primary effects of blast traumas? - ✔✔✔The direct blast effects. Types of injuries
include last long, tympanic membrane rupture and middle ear damage, abdominal hemorrhage and
perforation, global rupture, mild Trumatic brain injury.



What causes the secondary effects of blast traumas? - ✔✔✔Projectiles propelled by the explosion.
Injuries include penetrating or blunt injuries or I penetration.



What causes the tertiary effects of blast traumas? - ✔✔✔Results from individuals being thrown by the
blast wind. Injuries include hole or partial body translocation from being thrown against a hard service:
blunt or penetrating trauma's, fractures, traumatic amputations.



What causes quarternary effects of blast traumas? - ✔✔✔All explosion related injuries, illnesses, or
diseases not due to the first three mechanisms. Injuries include external and internal burns, crush
