“…A contusion is regarded as a soft tissue injury with a subcutaneous hemorrhage and without a break in the skin [7], commonly known as a bruise. There is no international standard for reporting badminton injuries, unlike the suggested guidelines for tennis medical conditions reporting provided by Pluim [8].…”

78injured which could be due to multi-planar loading. Turning or cutting movements typically involve motion in the frontal and transverse planes that may place the knee at greater risk of injury than movement in the sagittal plane alone. Further research on badminton specific movements is warranted to better understand the mechanisms of lower extremity injuries in the sport. Sports medicine and support personnel should take into account the susceptibility of the knee to injury when designing training and injury prevention programmes given the large number of change of direction movements during badminton.

“…This study also helps to identify the low level of evidence available supporting the incidence and intervention for dance and dance injuries. Previous international consensus statements in sport have been agreed to improve the methodology for the collection of injury data [65][66][67]. Within these consensus statements, there is an advocacy towards methodologies that utilise prospective cohort studies with time loss injury definitions and calculated exposure, allowing incidence to be calculated as injuries per 1000hours of sports participation.…”

Background: Within sport, mitigation of risk of injury through the use of comprehensive specialist sports medicine provision is commonplace. Dance participation, through its athletic nature can also introduce risk of injury, but unlike sport, is not always recognised that specialist medicinal provision will assist in the mitigation of that risk. Objectives: This systematic review has two objectives: to examine the extent of injury in dance participation; and the impact that specialist dance medicine provision has on overall dance injury incidence. Data sources: The review was undertaken using the Medline electronic databases using MeSH terms relating to the framing question. Study Eligibility Criteria and Participants: The study was based on ballet or any forms of artistic dance that had as its focus musculoskeletal injuries, or screening for injury prevention or interventions to reduce musculoskeletal injury. Interventions: The use of specialist dance medicine provision programmes including in-house medical teams, screening and exercise programmes Study appraisal and synthesis methods: As the literature relating to dance injury comprised of observational studies, the GRADE system was utilised. Results: The results of this systematic review reflect those of two previous systematic reviews in that little progress has been made in terms of quality of papers in recent years. On overall injury incidence of 1.33/1000hrs and a reduction in injury from 2.46/1000hrs to 0.84/1000hrs due to the impact of specialist dance medicine provision was calculated. Limitations: PubMed was not utilised as the search required medical subheadings and therefore the exclusion of unpublished work/thesis, poster presentations and abstracts along with chapters from books may reduce the total number of studies available from which evidence and recommendations can be drawn Conclusions and implications of key findings: An overall recommendation was made that, in the absence of stronger evidence, those involved with organising participation in dance consider the value of specialist medical provision. In addition, due to the low level of evidence reviewed, a call for consensus on injury data collection in dance is made to improve the quality of evidence in dance injury literature

“…16,17 Variations in injury definitions and methodologies among previous studies complicate comparisons and prevent effective meta-analysis. 31 Understanding patterns of injury among all tennis players is important in identifying injury trends and developing evidence-based injury prevention policies and measures. The objective of this research was to determine the epidemiology of tennis-related injuries treated in US hospital emergency departments (EDs) from 1990 through 2011.…”

Objective: To analyze the patterns and causes of tennis-related injuries using, for the first time, a nationally representative dataset. Design:A retrospective cohort analysis was performed using the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System database.Setting: All tennis-related injuries treated in U.S. emergency departments (EDs) from 1990 to 2011 were analyzed.Patients: During the study period, an estimated 492,002 (95% CI=364668-619336) individuals, ages 5 to 94 years, presented to U.S. EDs for tennis-related injuries. Assessment of Risk Factors:Independent variables include patient age and gender, mechanism of injury, and location of injury event.Main Outcome Measures: Outcome variables include injury diagnosis, body region injured, disposition from ED, and involvement of the net.Results: Most injuries were sustained by a nonspecific mechanism during play (37.9%) and occurred at a sport or recreation facility (83.4%). Children ages 5-18 years had a higher mean injury rate than adults older than 19 years. The most commonly injured body regions were the lower extremities (42.2%) and upper extremities (26.7%). Sprains or strains (44.1%) were the most common type of injury. The number of tennis-related injuries decreased by 41.4% from 1990 to 2011, and the rate of these injuries decreased by 45.2% -53.4% during a 12-18 year period. Among the 3.4% of patients who were admitted to the hospital, two-thirds (65.6%) involved patients 56 years of age or older. Conclusions:Despite the decrease in tennis-related injuries, the growing popularity of this sport warrants increased efforts to prevent injuries, especially among child and older adult participants.

Consensus Statement on Epidemiological Studies of Medical Conditions in Tennis, April 2009

Abstract: The definitions and methodology proposed for recording injuries and illnesses sustained during tennis activities will lead to more consistent and comparable data being collected. The surveillance procedures presented here may also be applicable to other racket sports.
