E-scooter-related injuries represent a new and emerging high-energy trauma patient. These patients demonstrate injury patterns similar to other high-energy trauma such as road traffic accidents. Although the most common injuries are musculoskeletal upper limb injuries typical of FOOSH, a large proportion of these require advanced diagnostic imaging (CT, MRI) which were commonly positive for significant injuries.
