No taekwondo or wrestling athletes were compliant. Despite low overall engagement, a large number of injuries or illness were recorded across 11 athletes who entered data—22 unique injuries, 8 unique illnesses, 30 recurrent injuries, and 2 recurrent illnesses. The most frequent injuries were to the knee in boxing (n=41) and thigh in judo (n=9). In this cohort, judo players experienced more severe, but less frequent, injuries than boxers, yet judo players sustained more illnesses than boxers. In 97.0% (126/130) of cases, athletes in this cohort continued to train irrespective of their health problems. Conclusions: Among athletes who reported injuries, many reported multiple conditions, indicating a need for health monitoring in Australian combat sports. A number of factors May have influenced engagement with the AMS, including access to the internet, the design of the system, coach views on the system, previous experiences with the system, and the existing culture within Australian combat sports. To increase engagement, there May be a requirement for sports staff to provide relevant feedback on data entered into the system. Until the Barriers are addressed, it is not feasible to implement the system in its current form across a larger cohort of combat athletes.]]> Wed 07 Apr 2021 14:01:38 AEST ]]> Reconstruction of head impacts in FIS World Cup alpine skiing http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:13398 Wed 07 Apr 2021 14:01:33 AEST ]]> Rating of perceived exertion is a stable and appropriate measure of workload in judo http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:13278 Wed 07 Apr 2021 14:01:26 AEST ]]> Head impact velocities in FIS World Cup snowboarders and freestyle skiers : Do real-life impacts exceed helmet testing standards? http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:13077 Wed 07 Apr 2021 14:01:16 AEST ]]> SCAT3 changes from baseline and associations with X2 Patch measured head acceleration in amateur Australian football players http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:13034 10 g) was measured by wearable head acceleration sensor X2 Biosystems X-Patch in male (n = 34) and female (n = 19) Australian footballers. SCAT3 was administered at baseline (B) and post-game (PG). Results: 1394 head acceleration events (HEA) >10 g were measured. Mean and median HEA PLA were recorded as 15.2 g (SD = 9.2, range = 10.0–115.8) and 12.4 g (IQR = 11.0–15.6) respectively. No significant difference in median HEA PLA (g) was detected across gender (p = 0.55), however, more HEAs were recorded in males (p = 0.03). A greater number (p = 0.004) and severity (p < 0.001) of symptoms were reported PG than at B. No significant association between number of HEA or median PLA, and SCAT3 change scores (p > 0.05 for all), was identified for either gender. Conclusions: Increase in symptom severity post game was not associated with X2 measured HEA. Males sustained more HEA, however HEA PLA magnitude did not differ across gender. Further work on the validation of head acceleration sensors is required and their role in sports concussion research and medical management. © 2017 Sports Medicine Australia]]> Wed 07 Apr 2021 14:01:13 AEST ]]> What is the definition of sports-related concussion : A systematic review http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:13016 Wed 07 Apr 2021 14:01:12 AEST ]]> Near miss experiences of transport and recreational cyclists in New South Wales, Australia.

Adult males in the 35-54 year age group were most likely to wear a correctly adjusted helmet. Using quasistatic helmet stability tests, it was found that the correctness of adjustment, rather than size, head dimensions, or shape, significantly affected helmet stability in all test directions. Conclusions: Bicycle helmets worn by recreational and commuter cyclists are often the wrong size and are often worn and adjusted incorrectly, especially in children and young people. Cyclists need to be encouraged to adjust their helmets correctly. Current headforms used in standards testing may not be representative of cyclists' head shapes. This may create challenges to helmet suppliers if on one hand they optimize the helmet to meet tests on ISO-related headforms while on the other seeking to offer greater range of sizes.]]> Wed 07 Apr 2021 13:47:01 AEST ]]> The biomechanics of concussion in unhelmeted football players in Australia: A case-control study http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:5910 Wed 07 Apr 2021 13:45:29 AEST ]]> Associations between helmet use and brain injuries amongst injured pedal- and motor-cyclists: A case series analysis of trauma centre presentations http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:5473 /= 2. Helmet use was coded. After stratification by rider type, data were analysed to examine the relationships between helmet use and injury using logistic regression. A total of 220 injured motorcycle riders and 137 injured pedal cyclists met the study's inclusion criteria, with 195 motorcycle riders and passengers (88.6%) and 87 pedal cyclists (63.5%) wearing helmets. Helmets were associated with a significant reduction (p<0.05) in the likelihood of head and intracranial injury in both rider groups. Associated with helmet use was a reduction in intracranial injury likelihood of 66% for both helmeted motorcycle riders and pedal cyclists. The study is further evidence of the benefits offered by helmets.]]> Wed 07 Apr 2021 13:45:06 AEST ]]> Compliance with return-to-play regulations following concussion in Australian schoolboy and community rugby union players http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:5448 Wed 07 Apr 2021 13:45:05 AEST ]]> Mild traumatic brain injury among a cohort of rugby union players: predictors of time to injury http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:5447 Wed 07 Apr 2021 13:45:05 AEST ]]> The effects of low arched feet on lower limb gait kinematics in children http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:4582 Wed 07 Apr 2021 13:44:03 AEST ]]> Combining epidemiology and biomechanics in sports injury prevention research : A new approach for selecting suitable controls http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:3827 Wed 07 Apr 2021 13:34:52 AEST ]]> Head, face and neck injury in youth rugby: Incidence and risk factors http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:2904 Wed 07 Apr 2021 13:33:55 AEST ]]> Does padded headgear prevent head injury in rugby union football? http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:1936 Wed 07 Apr 2021 13:33:00 AEST ]]> Use of field-based tests to identify risk factors for injury to fast bowlers in cricket http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:244 40 degrees of rotation.
