“…This is similar to other studies that found that lower body incurred more injuries than other regions during PE, leisure time, dancing and organized sports (Collard, Verhagen, van Mechelen, Heymans, & Chinapaw, 2011;Malkogeorgos et al, 2011). However, injuries sustained in judo competitions mostly involved the upper body (James & Pieter, 2003;Maciejewski & Pietkiewicz, 2016).…”

Abstract:Problem Statement: To date, most epidemiological studies on martial arts or combat sports have involved injuries incurred at the advanced or elite level. Thus far, there have been no studies on judo injuries sustained by students while participating in physical education classes. Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the profile of injuries among physical education judo students and identify whether age and sex correlate with injuries. Approach: Male (n = 273) and female (n = 327) college students, with a mean age of 18.49 years (±1.82) and who took judo as a PE class, were surveyed retrospectively. The injury rates are expressed per 1000 athlete-exposures. Results: There were a total of 180 injuries, at a rate of 9.4 per 1000 athlete-exposures (95% CI: 8.00 -10.70), which were reported by PE judo students from 2011 to 2016. There was no significant difference between males and females in terms of the injury rates (OR = 1.12, 95% CI: 0.78 -1.60; p = 0.545). Age was found to have a significant effect on all injuries (OR = 0.91; 0.82 -1.00; p = 0.045), to the ankles (OR = 0.79; 0.65 -0.96; p = 0.017) and fingers (OR = 0.77; 0.61 -0.97; p = 0.027). A similar pattern was found for strains (p = 0.008) and stress fractures (p = 0.021). Being thrown (31.1%) and impacts on the surface (26.1%) were the most common injury mechanisms. Conclusion: Compared with the injuries incurred at the advanced or elite level, the injuries sustained in PE classes were more varied in terms of the involved body parts and injury types.

“…8 The costs for both of these sites (upper and lower extremity) were greater in the present study than in that of rugby league players that involved all ages and both sexes. However, injury sites were not corrected for the possible confounding effect of injury type -therefore we cannot exclude the possibility that the significantly higher average cost of fractures (Table 2) could have influenced the mean cost of injury sites in the present study.…”

“…Medical treatments/services and the time that the injured player's parent/legal guardian were away from work were quantified using a cost diary used previously, 8 and which was adapted for use in South Africa. The South African version was adapted from the original version to provide a semi-structured guide for the telephonic interviewer to capture total quantity and type of medical service sought.…”

“…4 In general, rugby carries a higher incidence and severity of injury to the participant, 5 in comparison to other popular sports. 6 Although other sports, [7][8][9] including rugby league, [10][11][12] have reported on injury-related monetary costs, this analysis is yet to be performed in rugby union.…”

“…8 In South Africa, the BokSmart programme is responsible for implementing injury prevention strategies in rugby union 13 injuries is therefore essential for guiding future policies emanating from this nationwide programme. Therefore, the aim of this study is to describe the monetary cost of rugby-related injuries in a youth cohort.…”
