“…WHO defines health as ‘a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being’ and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity 12. Extending this definition, Clarsen et al 13 defined an athletic health problem as any condition that reduces an athlete’s normal state of full health, irrespective of its consequences on the athlete’s sports participation or performance or whether the athlete sought medical attention. This constitutes an umbrella term that includes, but is not limited to, injury and illness.…”

“…A tool such as the Oslo Sports Trauma Research Center Questionnaire on Health Problems (OSTRC-H) complements time-loss measures of severity, as it also captures symptoms and functional consequences of injury and illness. This purpose-built instrument was devised in 201345 and updated in 2020,13 and has played an increasing role in sports injury and illness surveillance, especially in sports and settings where overuse injuries and illnesses represent a substantial burden on health and performance 48…”

Injury and illness surveillance, and epidemiological studies, are fundamental elements of concerted efforts to protect the health of the athlete. To encourage consistency in the definitions and methodology used, and to enable data across studies to be compared, research groups have published 11 sport-specific or setting-specific consensus statements on sports injury (and, eventually, illness) epidemiology to date. Our objective was to further strengthen consistency in data collection, injury definitions and research reporting through an updated set of recommendations for sports injury and illness studies, including a new Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) checklist extension. The IOC invited a working group of international experts to review relevant literature and provide recommendations. The procedure included an open online survey, several stages of text drafting and consultation by working groups and a 3-day consensus meeting in October 2019. This statement includes recommendations for data collection and research reporting covering key components: defining and classifying health problems; severity of health problems; capturing and reporting athlete exposure; expressing risk; burden of health problems; study population characteristics and data collection methods. Based on these, we also developed a new reporting guideline as a STROBE Extension-the STROBE Sports Injury and Illness Surveillance (STROBE-SIIS). The IOC encourages ongoing in-and out-ofcompetition surveillance programmes and studies to describe injury and illness trends and patterns, understand their causes and develop measures to protect the health of the athlete. Implementation of the methods outlined in this statement will advance consistency in data collection and research reporting.
