A 26-year-old male has been involved in a motor vehicle accident. He was not wearing his seat belt and struck his chest against the steering wheel. Upon examination you notice a large amount of bruising to his anterior chest wall. His blood pressure is 110/96, he has muffled heart sounds and you notice JVD in his neck. Which conditions would he most likely be suffering from?

seat belt syndrome      

Explanation:

In simple words, Seat belt disorder refers to the common concept that encompasses all types of injuries due to the usage of seat belts. This is conventionally described as a seat belt (seat belt markings on the bodies) including an interpersonal-abdominal damage to the intestine (e.g. intestinal perforations) as well as thoraco-lumbar spinal breaks.

The signs correlated with that condition rely on the organ being harmed. Peritoneal symptoms can occur in the case of an injury to the hollow organs. Whereas hypovolemic symptoms control the clinical picture in the case of parenchymal or vascular accidents.
