Where to find information about accidents in winter sports?

Société Internationale de Traumatologie et de Médecine des Sports d'Hiver
The history of SITEMSH started 50 years ago in the 50's, when a group of experts from Alpine Countries (Austria, France, Germany, Italy and Switzerland) began to observe, collect and study the injuries occurring after winter sport accidents. They decided to meet every two years on behalf of a new Society named SITEMSH (Société Internationale de Médecine des Sports d’Hiver)

Medecins de Montagne
Founded in 1953, Médecins de Montagne is an association of more than 300 doctors practicing in winter sports resorts.These doctors ensures the security of 9 million winter sports resort users every season.

Since 1992 they have developed a computerized network of epidemiology which involved fifty members. The results of the epidemiological observation network are unique in the world. We put at your disposal on our website the main results of our investigations.
