“…With regard to the type of injuries, sprains and strains accounted for the greatest proportion (61.1%). Similar findings were observed in other sport-active populations 9,33 . Players who jump, leap, land and sprint are more susceptible to sustain sprains and strains and the injured might feel a sudden pain at the beginning and unable to stand or walk subsequently 34 .…”

“…More specially, ankle and foot were the most predominant injured body parts and accounted for nearly one-third of all injuries. This could be found in other reports focused on various sport-active populations 9,33 . These consistent findings might due to the dominant usage of lower limbs when undertaking PAs because actions like pushing, jumping and running preferentially involved in lower limbs 32 .…”

“…Consistent with previous research 15 , more than half of PARI were acute in this study. Earlier reports have shown that contact team sports such as basketball and football might lead to more acute injuries 9,28 , while non-contact personal activities like running and climbing were mainly associated with overuse injuries 29,30 . The higher incidence of acute injuries was corresponding to the result in the present study that playing basketball involved in the majority of injuries.…”

“…In addition, a history of injury was also identified as a significant risk factor for subsequent injuries 7 . Previous studies concerning the epidemiology of PARI among collegiate athletes showed that the injury incidence density varied from 1.91 to 11.7 per 1000 exposure hours 6,8,9 . This implies that the injury incidence density is relatively high and therefore, effective injury prevention programs are necessary to be developed with a first step to obtain epidemiological information about the epidemiology of PARI in targeted population 10 .…”

Moreover, most studies only reported the occurrences of injuries, while ignoring the calculation of injury incidence density (an important injury indicator) 11 .…”

This prospective study was to describe the incidence and characteristics of physical activity-related injuries (PARI) among college students in southern China. Online questionnaires and telephone interviews were combined to investigate the physical activity (PA) participation and PARI occurrences every two weeks. Totally, 84 college students (men: 49; women: 35) with a mean age of 19.4 years completed the entire 1-year follow-up. Overall, 14250.3 PA exposure hours were collected and 36 PARI episodes were reported by 26 students, with an injury incidence density of 2.53 injuries per 1000 PA exposure hours and an injury risk of 0.43 injuries/student/year. July to September accounted for a highest proportion of injuries and half of the injuries happened in the evening. The majority of injuries occurred outdoors, happened in non-contact activities, were acute and involved the lower limbs, with sprains and strains being the primary injury types. Of all injuries, 80.6% resulted in PA withdrawal immediately and 58.3% led to absence from the next planned PA. No significant difference was found between men and women. This study reveals the problem of PARI among college students, which provides the direction for the prevention of PARI in this population.

Background Studies have revealed a higher incidence of injury and illness among elite adaptive athletes when compared to non‐disabled athletes in the Paralympics and Olympics. However, sport‐specific health care incidence rates and patterns outside of the Paralympics have been poorly described. To date, there are no prospective studies focused on injury or illness rates among intercollegiate wheelchair basketball players. Objective To determine the incidence of sports‐related injuries and illnesses among men's and women's intercollegiate wheelchair basketball teams throughout a season. We hypothesized that injury rates among the intercollegiate wheelchair basketball players would be similar to or greater than those of previously published National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) nondisabled basketball players and that injuries would most commonly affect the upper extremities. Design Prospective surveillance study. Setting Men's and women's intercollegiate wheelchair basketball teams in Arlington, Texas. Participants Twenty‐eight (14 male, 14 female) of the 29 (15 male, 14 female) eligible adult athletes playing on an intercollegiate men's or women's wheelchair basketball team during the 2018‐2019 season. Interventions Completion of a repeatable, electronic, web‐app injury and illness survey during the season, as well as separate pre‐ and post‐season injury and illness surveys. Main Outcome Measures Injury rates throughout the season based on athlete‐exposures and relative risk (RR) of injury of intercollegiate wheelchair basketball players compared to NCAA nondisabled basketball players. Description of onset, location, diagnosis, medical evaluation, and missed time from sport related to injuries and illnesses. Results Sixty‐two health‐related incidents, including 48 injuries and 14 illnesses, were prospectively reported during the season. Overall injury incidence rates were 12.2 (95% confidence interval [95% CI] 7.4 to 17.4) and 13.1 (95% CI 7.8 to 18.4) injuries per 1000 athlete‐exposures among male and female athletes, respectively. These equated to RRs of 1.53 (95% CI 1.03 to 2.27) (male) and 2.01 (95% CI 1.34 to 3.02) (female) when compared to the rates published previously on NCAA nondisabled basketball players, indicating a statistically significant increase in injury risk. Injuries most commonly involved the upper extremities (56.3%). Illnesses commonly involved the gastrointestinal (35.7%) or respiratory (21.4%) systems. Conclusions This is the first prospective study to report incidence of sports‐related injuries and illnesses throughout an intercollegiate wheelchair basketball season. Overall injury rates reported were higher than prior NCAA nondisabled intercollegiate basketball reports. This reinforces the need to establish an accessible network of health care support and injury prevention strategies for these athletes.

Injuries sustained in National Collegiate Athletic Association men's and women's basketball, 2009/2010–2014/2015

Abstract: NTL injuries account for over half of all injuries in basketball. Most injuries were lower extremity injuries, specifically ankle sprains. While rule changes have been implemented to make basketball safer, continued research is needed to assess the effectiveness of these changes.
