Abstract:
Injuries as a result from bicycle accidents occur frequently in the Netherlands, annually 76.000 persons. In this article we focus on the consequences for daily practice in ten questions on this subject. Different injuries per category of bicycle (e-bike, fat-bike, regular bike) are addressed, with focus on eventual red flags for injuries that can potentially be missed in the acute phase by general practitioners or emergency physicians. Also, information on risk factors for participation in traffic, specifically for older persons are discussed and preventative measures to reduce the risk of injuries while participating in traffic by bicycle.
