(1) A 61-year-old man was trapped under a ride-on mower that had rolled over. Autopsy examination revealed congestion and petechial haemorrhages of the face and chest, and markings on the chest associated with underlying rib fractures. (2) A 78-year-old man was trapped under a ride-on mower that had also rolled over. Autopsy examination revealed petechial haemorrhages of the face and chest and markings on the chest. (3) A 72-year-old man was found wedged between a ride-on mower and a tree, with petechial haemorrhages of the face and chest, and markings on the front and back of the chest. These cases demonstrate a rare cause of crush asphyxia, often in older males in the domestic environment, which may arise from more than one mechanism.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0025802417709421","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,5,11]],"date-time":"2017-05-11T09:05:13Z","timestamp":1494493513000},"page":"134-136","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Crush asphyxia and ride-on lawn mowers"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"57","author":[{"given":"Roger W","family":"Byard","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine, The University of Adelaide, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Neil EI","family":"Langlois","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine, The University of Adelaide, Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,5,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0025802417709421","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3233\/WOR-2012-0116-3629"},{"key":"bibr2-0025802417709421","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.bjps.2010.08.003"},{"key":"bibr3-0025802417709421","unstructured":"Hazard.
