As a cyclist I both love and hate how many separate ones there are

[–] RecallMadness@lemmy.nz 1 points 34 minutes ago

And how many admissions compared to motorcycles there are.

[–] TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 19 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

Part of my job is fitting people with custom bracing in the trauma ward. I realized this wasn't the US because there were so many cyclists, and it was lacking an atv category.

In my state the trauma ward has an ATV season. Also, I'm surprised there wasn't a subcategory for pool injuries, or at least a category for slip and falls. Are swimming pools not very popular in the UK?

[–] tburkhol@lemmy.world 10 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

General slip-and-fall doesn't seem like it would be highly gendered. Do you find pool injuries are overwhelmingly one sex?

General slip-and-fall doesn't seem like it would be highly gendered.

The amount of falls I'm guessing is fairly similar, but older women are a lot more likely to end up in the trauma ward from it. For one there are just more old women than old men in my area and they are far more likely to have osteoporosis.

Do you find pool injuries are overwhelmingly one sex?

I generally see a lot more young men and boys from injuries from the pool. More rough housing, diving, and running around on wet concrete.

[–] meco03211@lemmy.world 4 points 11 hours ago

My assumption would be that males would tend more towards risky behavior around a pool.

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 4 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Very few people have swimming pools at home, if that's what you mean.

[–] BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uk 2 points 4 hours ago

We just go to the local puddle during the rainy season, typically between January and December.

And at the opposite end of the spectrum, how many elements for pregnancy there are as well! (And no specific Delivery, but Outcome of Delivery. Do people in US not usually give birth in a hospital?)

Edit: Not US but England

[–] prettybunnys@piefed.social 10 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

In the US the hospital is most common but there is a growing movement for alternative birth methods, birthing centers, at home births, being strapped to a wall and having crystals shot at you until your baby just sort of materializes, etc

[–] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 4 points 8 hours ago

While there are fringe anti-science people pushing for home births, the main cause is lack of health insurance/fear of unexpected bills.

[–] Hadriscus@jlai.lu 2 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

That's creative. I'd love being bombarded with raw amethysts while I'm breaking waters

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 4 points 8 hours ago

Amethysts and essential oils. Men know there is only one essential oil.... WD40.

[–] Zombiepirate@lemmy.world 7 points 12 hours ago (3 children)

This chart is for people in England.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 14 points 12 hours ago

Explains the lack of gunshots compared to stabbings.

[–] 14th_cylon@lemmy.zip 6 points 11 hours ago

this chart is for anyone interested in charts, don't gatekeep charts!

[–] Eq0@literature.cafe 6 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Thanks for pointing it out! Lemmy is so US centered I didn’t notice

[–] Bring_Back_Buggy_Whips@sh.itjust.works 3 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

lol, someone downvoted your candid opinion.

[–] Nikko882@lemmy.world 5 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago)

Dunno about people in the US, but this chat says the information is from England. I'm guessing delivery is included in one of the other categories (probably outcome of delivery).

[–] FoxyFerengi@startrek.website 4 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Birth centers are incredibly common now. And home births are preferred among certain people, like anti-vaxers and sovereign citizens

[–] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 4 points 8 hours ago

It’s mostly people with inadequate medical coverage who can’t afford insane surprise bills.

[–] AnyOldName3@lemmy.world 4 points 12 hours ago

This is NHS England data, so not likely to be affected by whether people in the US usually give birth in a hospital.

[–] teft@piefed.social 4 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

Seriously. As a downhill biker I count at least 5 lines for me:

Cyclist, Object Collision Cyclist, Other Cyclist, Non Collision Accident Assault, Sharp object (my shins and calves are constantly being torn up by my fucking pedals. fuck those grip screws) Struck by sports equipment

[–] Wahots@pawb.social 2 points 4 hours ago

Clipless will save your shins :)
