Abstract

A retrospective follow-up of patients admitted to hospital with a diagnosis of head injury in two sample years, before and after the introduction of legislation requiring the use of seat belts, has been undertaken. This shows a marked reduction in the incidence of severe head injury following the introduction of this legislation.
