2020, Journal of Science and Medicine in SportCitation Excerpt :As only two studies explored real-time head-impact kinematics, results are presented in Supplementary Table 7. The protocol for concussion diagnosis included diagnosis or verification by club medical staff,20,33–36,38–40,50–55 with data entry performed by a club doctor,38,39,41 sports trainer,37,41,46 physiotherapist,41,48 player self-report,42 or by a nominated team parent/teacher/coach/manager/staff member/trained volunteer37,43–47,50 Mechanism of injury details were predominantly reported at the total47,35,37,41,43,45 or broad injury-category level,46,50 rather than the specific concussive-injury level.53,54 Focusing on non-AFL-IRs, Table 1 outlines incidence rates per 1000 player hours, confidence intervals, and time-loss details reported in concussion definitions, by level-of-play.
The incidence, prevalence, severity, mechanism and body region of injury in elite junior Australian football players: A prospective cohort study over one season
2018, Journal of Science and Medicine in SportCitation Excerpt :At present, there remain key discrepancies and inconsistencies in establishing the epidemiology of injuries in elite junior AF players.19 Previous injury surveillance studies in elite junior AF have either used injury definitions that are described as “too broad”18,23 or “too narrow”.17 The “too broad” definition includes any injury resulting in medical attention, whereas the “too narrow” definition (used by the AFL) only incudes missed matches.
Junior Australian football injury research: Are we moving forward?
2013, Physical Therapy in SportCitation Excerpt :Previous research has demonstrated an increased injury risk for ‘older’ junior AF players (Grimmer & Williams, 2003; Romiti et al., 2008). The injury incidence reported by Grimmer and Williams (2003) and Scase et al. (2012) could not be compared with the aforementioned papers due to variation in the implemented injury definitions. A limitation of the Grimmer and Williams (2003) study was that injury incidence was not reported in relation to an exposure measure.
