Head protection for horse riders: a cause for concern.

L C Muwanga, A F Dove.   

Abstract

We report the frequency with which horse riders with a significant head injury present to a large accident and emergency department. We have also recorded details about the use of headwear and conclude that horse-riding is associated with a serious risk of head injury and 'protective' headwear may not always protect.
