Jeffrey R. Brubacher,Herbert Chan,Shannon Erdelyi,Scott Macdonald,Mark Asbridge,Robert E. Mann,Jeffrey Eppler,Adam Lund,Andrew MacPherson,Walter Martz,William E. Schreiber,Rollin Brant,Roy Purssell +12 more
TL;DR: A responsibility analysis to determine whether drivers injured in motor vehicle collisions who test positive for Δ‐9‐tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) or other drugs are more likely to have contributed to the crash than those who test negative found no evidence of increased crash risk in non‐fatally injured motor vehicle drivers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Jeffrey R. Brubacher,Herbert Chan,Penelope M. A. Brasher,Shannon Erdelyi,Ediriweera B. R. Desapriya,Mark Asbridge,Roy Purssell,Scott Macdonald,Nadine Schuurman,Ian Pike +9 more
TL;DR: Findings suggest that laws calling for immediate sanctions for dangerous drivers can reduce road trauma and should be supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of child safety restraint legislation on child injuries in police-reported motor vehicle collisions in British Columbia: An interrupted time series analysis
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that British Columbia's new child safety restraint law was associated with fewer injuries among children covered by the new laws.
Journal ArticleDOI
Police documentation of drug use in injured drivers: Implications for monitoring and preventing drug-impaired driving.
Jeffrey R. Brubacher,Herbert Chan,Shannon Erdelyi,Mark Asbridge,Robert E. Mann,Roy Purssell,Robert Solomon +6 more
TL;DR: Police seldom document drug involvement in drivers who were in a crash after using cannabis, other recreational drugs or potentially impairing medications, and this finding raises serious concerns about the ability of the police to effectively enforce current drug-impaired driving laws and public health officials' continued reliance on police crash reports to monitor the prevalence of drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of rates of opioid withdrawal symptoms and reversal of opioid toxicity in patients treated with two naloxone dosing regimens: a retrospective cohort study
Roy Purssell,Jesse Godwin,Jessica Moe,Jane A. Buxton,Alexis Crabtree,Andrew Kestler,Chris DeWitt,Frank X. Scheuermeyer,Shannon Erdelyi,Robert Balshaw,Adrianna Rowe,Christopher K. Cochrane,Benjamin Ng,Andy Jiang,Alessia Risi,Vi Ho,Jeffrey R. Brubacher +16 more
TL;DR: Hospital patients treated with two naloxone dosing regimens were found to be more likely to have opioid withdrawal symptoms but also morelikely to meet reversal criteria versus LDN patients, and HDN patients were more likely of having OW but also of meeting reversal criteria.
