“…Pretensioners are an effective countermeasure designed to remove the slack from the seat belt and facilitate early application of the restraint load to the occupant by coupling the occupant to the vehicle early in the crash and increasing the amount of work done by the restraint (Bose et al 2010;Forman et al 2008;Grime 1979;Kent et al 2007;Mitzkus and Eyrainer 1984;Viano 1988;Walz 2004). Previous adult PMHS (Kent et al 2001) and ATD (Forman et al 2008) laboratory tests, field data (ForetBruno et al 1998), and New Car Assessment Program crash tests (Waltz 2004) have suggested that pretensioning is beneficial for reducing injury to adult occupants in frontal impacts.…”

“…Alguns autores afirmam que a redução de lesões mortais chega a atingir entre 40 e 70% (Grime 4 , 1979); levantamento realizado no Pronto Socorro do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo * mostrou cerca de 30% de diminuição nas lesões de face com comprometimento ocular após a implantação da lei do cinto de segurança no Município de São Paulo.…”

“…Three point seatbelts are known to be very effective in mitigating injuries in vehicle crashes. 1 In a vehicle crash, 3-point seatbelts prevent the body impacting interior structure by restraining the moving body at the pelvis, chest, and shoulders. However, improper seatbelt fit, and in particular the fit of the lap belt, might lead to the belt sliding over the anterior superior iliac spines (ASIS) during a frontal crash.…”
