“…VAS ¼visual analog scale. 50 kg) can be generated by the electric motor of the window lifter in order to press the window glass into the seal entry for air and watertight closure (Hohendorff et al, 2010). If it is assumed that above the maximum subjective pain threshold structural finger injuries could occur, the 100 N closing force limit is too high and should be reduced, particularly with regard to the risk to children's fingers.…”

“…In a previous study of ours with the same 109 volunteers who participated in this study, we determined entrapment 7 Deflection (mm) Index finger distal phalanx (1), raw data Index finger distal interphalangeal joint (2), raw data Index finger middle phalanx (3), raw data Index finger proximal interphalangeal joint (4), raw data Index finger proximal phalanx (5), raw data Index finger distal phalanx, interpolated Index finger distal interphalangeal joint, interpolated Index finger middle phalanx, interpolated Index finger proximal interphalangeal joint, interpolated Index finger proximal phalanx, interpolated forces acting on the participants ' fingers at the subjective maximum pain threshold during entrapment between the window glass and seal entry of a motor vehicle side door [ 3 ]. The maximum bearable entrapment force was 97.2 N for the PIP of all triphalangeal fingers, 43.4 N for the index PIP, and 36.9 N for the index DIP.…”

“…Ethical reasons rule out obtaining jam measurements from child participants, and child cadaver specimens are scarce. Therefore, we used adult participant and cadaver data for the production of a silicone hand with the dimensions of a 6-year-old child ( Table 1 ), which were obtained in a previous study [ 2 ]. Inside each finger, pressure sensors were embedded in a special silicone mantle.…”

“…Algunos estudios sobre la longitud y diámetro de los dedos se han llevado a cabo con el propósito de aportar al mejoramiento de ciertos mecanismos del cierre de vidrios en automóviles, para así evitar lesiones en los dedos, especialmente de niños, como es el caso de la investigación llevada a cabo por Hohendorff et al (2010) en 160 niños de 3 a 10 años de edad, quienes obtuvieron valores con los que proporcionalmente concordamos de acuerdo al párrafo anterior, señalando también que todas las dimensiones se incrementaron con la edad. En las edades estudiadas no encontraron diferencias entre sexos para longitud y diámetro.…”
