The popularity of electric scooters (EC) has increased significantly in recent years and understanding the diverse impacts of EC use on health is crucial for ensuring its safe integration in urban mobility. To address this, a systematic review was conducted with the aim of identifying areas, objectives, and results of academic production dedicated to studying the impacts of EC use on health. Articles were sourced from four databases: Inspec, Science Direct, Scopus, and Web of Science. 36 articles were analyzed, and relevant information was systematically retrieved, organized, and codified into a structured database. While the increase in accidents and subsequent healthcare burden is acknowledged, further research is needed to determine whether the rise in accidents results from increased recklessness or simply a surge in usage. The potential association with moral panic, fueled by negative media portrayals, underscores the importance of a balanced public discourse and accurate representation of ECs. The predominant focus of studies on accidents indicates a gap in a holistic understanding of the impacts of EC use on health. Future research and policy considerations should strive to strike a balance between fostering the benefits and challenges of EC use, ensuring the development of sustainable and safe micromobility solutions.
