Para athletes often do not have access to a team physician (and physician experience can vary greatly), consider whether data can be reported by other medical staff, coaches or athletes themselves.

Consider how diagnosis is made (eg, with objective methods such as imaging).

Consider collecting data in several languages.

A global injury/illness reporting app/software that allows each Para sport to record their data are preferable.44

Prospective data collection of self-reports can be recommended where athletes do not have access to medical staff.32
