Summary

Horse-related activity can be risky. Horses are the leading cause of animal-related fatalities in Oregon and Oregon's annual death rate from animals is 45% higher than the national rate. By interviewing injured equestrians, the investigators may be able to determine patterns of decision-making and behavior from their collective experience and develop useful safety recommendations. The investigators will also determine the impact that the injury has had on quality of life. The long-term goal of the investigators research is to develop safety and prevention recommendations and a horse-related injury prevention program to reduce the number of horse related injuries.
