Abstract

In the spring of 1962, a research grant was obtained from the United States Public Health Service to study power take-off accidents .• The purpose of this study was to conduct a one-year pilot study into the causes of PTO accidents through epidemiological case investigation of such accidents in the state of Iowa. The objective of this study was not to determine the incidence of injury to a segment of the population, but to develop a means of injury prevention from detailed investigations of these accidents by instituting a pilot study.
