Barbat A, Partiali B, Oska S, et al. - Via searching the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System (NEISS) for ladder-related head, face, and neck fractures treated in US emergency departments, researchers sought to inscribe the frequency and pattern of ladder-related head, face, and neck fractures from 2009–2018. NEISS yielded data from a total of 601 cases (weighted national estimate of 20,450 total cases) of ladder-related head, face, and neck fractures from 2009 to 2018. Following fracture locations were most commonly reported: face (51.0%), cervical spine (28.3%) and cranial (20.7%) fractures. Per observations, there were substantially higher admission rates for ladder-related head, face, and neck fractures when compared with those previously reported for all types of ladder-related injuries. Variation in injury and admission patterns were observed by age. They emphasize undertaking rigorous safety precautions for the high-risk groups identified in this study, particularly the elderly.
