Abstract

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) represents a significant burden on individuals, societies, and healthcare systems as it is associated with long-term neurological and behavioral consequences. Although these effects vary according to severity, events that lead to TBI and mild TBI (mTBI), such as concussions, subconcussive impacts, and non-impact violent head movements, may also lead to similar changes. Soccer players are particularly prone to mTBI as they are exposed to head impacts in various ways during training and gameplay. A commonly-claimed TBI risk is that posed by the "heading" technique. Our examination of the literature questions the extent to which heading actually is a risk for TBI and mTBI vs other sources of head impact in soccer. Although headgear may protect against some impacts, it has not been widely adopted due to limited efficacy, practical limitations and potential changes to the heading technique. Nevertheless, accurate assessment of head impacts and other movements that may lead to TBI in soccer would be valuable to players, coaches, athletic and medical personnel. A potential method for accurately detecting head acceleration – a crucial element of most head injuries – is measurements through accelerometers. Here, we survey the different types of accelerometers and recent findings on their accuracy and feasibility among soccer players and offer suggestions for long-term research with these tools.

基于加速度计的足球运动头部撞击检测--进展如何?
创伤性脑损伤(TBI)给个人、社会和医疗系统带来了沉重负担,因为它与长期的神经和行为后果有关。虽然这些影响因严重程度而异,但导致创伤性脑损伤和轻微创伤性脑损伤(mTBI)的事件,如脑震荡、亚脑震荡撞击和非撞击性头部剧烈运动,也可能导致类似的变化。足球运动员在训练和比赛过程中头部会受到各种撞击,因此特别容易发生轻度创伤性脑损伤。通常所说的创伤性脑损伤风险是由 "头球 "技术造成的。我们对文献进行了研究,对 "头球 "与足球运动中其他头部撞击来源相比,究竟在多大程度上会造成创伤性脑损伤和间脑创伤的风险提出了质疑。虽然头盔可以抵御某些撞击,但由于其效果有限、实际局限性以及头球技术的潜在变化,头盔并未被广泛采用。不过,准确评估足球运动中可能导致创伤性脑损伤的头部撞击和其他运动,对球员、教练、运动员和医务人员都很有价值。准确检测头部加速度(大多数头部损伤的关键因素)的潜在方法是通过加速度计进行测量。在此,我们将对不同类型的加速度计及其在足球运动员中的准确性和可行性的最新研究结果进行调查,并对这些工具的长期研究提出建议。
