Hi Stig:
I believe you are interested in "severity of injury,"
not "potential for injury," or "risk of injury."
Here is a numerical assignment for severity of injury
that I found in my files. I have no idea of its
source.
10 Death
9 Long-term or permanent coma
8 Full body paralysis (permanent)
7 Loss of more than one organ or limb
6 Loss of one organ or limb
5 Loss of a function (permanent)
4 Broken bone or tendon
3 Heals with scar
2 Heals with no scare
1 No injury
While I can't cite any references, I believe that
there ought to be some literature that thoroughly
discusses both risk of injury and severity of injury.
This isn't a new topic.
Best regards,
Rich
