“…Previous studies have reported that most induced injuries are not serious; 9–11 however, specific definitions of recovery time categories were not provided in these studies. In our study, weight class had a significant effect on the recovery time in both men and women; and the distribution and recovery time in different parts of the body differed significantly in terms of weight class.…”

“…Three previous studies reported injury data for competitions associated with induction events. 9–11 Previous studies that included judo athletes only distinguished injury rates and did not consider weight class or recovery time. Although differences in study design preclude a direct comparison between our results and those of previous studies, most injuries occurred in the upper extremities based on the findings of studies among judo athletes from USA National Championships, 9 French Judo Federation, 10 and Brazilian National Championships, 12 and the second most commonly affected body parts varied between studies.…”

“…3 , 4 There have been various studies of injuries in elite judo athletes. 9–11 However, only a few induction studies have focused on the relationship between weight class and injury. In addition, there is a lack of epidemiological studies on the degree of pain and recovery time due to sports injury; therefore, few prospective studies have aimed to identify and quantify risk factors for injury.…”

We analyzed the specific patterns of injury by weight category of the Olympic-athlete style and examined the effects of pain on recovery time and the studied the correlation between the type of injury and recovery time.…”

We aimed to assess the risk of injury associated with training activities in a population of elite adolescent judo athletes, expected to represent South Korea. From 2019, we prospectively collected data on elite adolescent judo athletes at the Korean Training Center. The athletes were assessed by sports medicine doctors, and data were stratified according to sex, weight class, and injury location. We used χ2 tests to compare groups. Injury rates were expressed as Poisson rates with 95% confidence intervals. One-way analysis of variance was used to investigate the pain score and recovery time due to type of injury. The study included 240 elite adolescent judo athletes whose 617 injuries (annual average, 2.57 injuries/athlete) were recorded. When all athletes were considered, most injuries occurred in the lower extremities (39.71%), followed by the upper extremities (36.63%), trunk (16.69%), and head and neck area (6.97%). Recovery time significantly differed according to the body regions in the weight classes. The pain score and recovery time according to the type of injury were significantly different. When the pain score decreased by 1, the recovery time decreased by about 1.47 days. In all weight classes, female athletes had a higher injury rate than male athletes; both male and female athletes had different recovery time depending on their weight class. The type of injury influenced the pain score and recovery time, with pain score being associated with recovery time.

Objective. To determine the injury incidence proportion, distribution of injuries by anatomical location; injury type; injury severity, time loss; mechanism and situations of injuries; and the relative risk of injuries by gender, age, and weight categories during judo tournaments. Study Design. It is a systematic review. Data Sources. A systematic review of the literature was conducted via searches in PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, CINAHL, SPORTDiscus, Google Scholar, and PEDro. Eligibility Criteria. All original studies on the incidence of injuries during judo tournaments were included. Results. Twenty-five studies were included out of the 1979 studies. Using the modified AXIS tool score for quality assessment, seven were rated as having good quality, nine were rated as having fair quality, and four were rated as having poor quality. The injury incidence proportion during tournaments ranged from 2.5% to 72.5% for injuries requiring medical evaluation and 1.1% to 4.1% for injuries causing time loss (i.e., inability to continue game participation). The most commonly reported injury location was the head, followed by the hand, knee, elbow, and shoulder. The most frequent types of injury were sprains, followed by contusions, skin lacerations, strains, and fractures. In judo tournaments, injuries were more often sustained during standing fights (tachi-waza) than in ground fights (ne-waza). Conclusion. The tournament injury incidence proportion ranged from 2.5% to 72.5% for injuries requiring medical attention and 1.1% to 4.1% for injuries causing time loss. The head was the most frequently injured body part, and sprain was the most frequent injury type. However, current reports on injuries during judo tournaments are heterogeneous and inconsistent, limiting our understanding of in-match injury risks. Future studies should utilize the guidelines of the International Olympic Committee consensus meeting statement on the methodological approach to injury reporting. We recommend a judo-specific extension of this statement to fit the unique features of judo sports practice.

Background: The specificity of the technical actions that are performed in judo may be dependent on and vary during particular phases of the combat, thus possibly impacting injury prevalence. Therefore, towards the betterment of athletes’ safety and considering the importance of the issue of injury prevention in judo, the main goal of this study was to identify the injury occurrence during respective combat phases, i.e., the (a) first half, (b) second half, (c) last minute, and (d) golden score. Methods: A total of 26,862 elite judo athletes, including 15,571 men and 11,291 women, participated in the study. The subjects competed in 128 international tournaments of the European Judo Union (EJU) in 2005–2020. The EJU medical questionnaire was utilized to gather information from each injured athlete according to the aforementioned inclusion criteria. Results: Several statistically significant relationships were found between the differences in the number of injuries between particular combat phases and the athlete’s sex. Conclusions: A significantly higher number of injuries occurred during the combined second half and the last minute of the judo combat. Males suffered more injuries during the first and second half of the combat compared to females, however, during the last minute of the combat, the number of injuries was greater among women.
