More males (N=253, 84.9%) than females (N=45, 15.1%) were injured in ATV related incidents, t(20)=7.12, p&lt;.0001. Head and thorax injuries were the most serious. 38.6% of patients were confirmed to be wearing helmets. Mean injury severity scores are as follows: head injury (M=11, SD=9.51), thorax (M=10, SD=8.3), abdominal\/pelvis (M=9, SD=7.62), upper extremity (M=9, SD=8.53), other injuries (M=9, SD=10.56) lower extremity (M=8, SD=8.34), and spine (M=8, SD=6.52).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S1481803517000513_abs4\" sec-type=\"conclusions\"><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>This study describes ATV related injuries and deaths in NL.
