Abstract

Objective

Floorball is a swift sport; players perform multiple quick turns during practices and games. The aim of this study was to examine the incidence of floorball injuries. In addition, we aimed to examine the differences in the incidences between sexes and anatomical locations.

Methods

The PubMed (National Library of Medicine), Web of Science (Clarivate), Scopus (Elsevier), and SPORTDiscus (EBSCO) databases were searched from inception to January 6th, 2023. A study was eligible for analysis if the number of injuries per exposure time was reported. The study protocol was prospectively registered in the PROSPERO database (CRD42023390659).

Results

The total pooled incidence of floorball injuries was 2.28 (confidence interval [CI] 1.27 to 4.10) injuries per 1000 h for all included studies. For females, the pooled incidence was 2.33 (CI 1.22 to 4.46) injuries per 1000 h, and for males, the incidence was 1.98 (CI 1.83 to 2.14) injuries per 1000-h. For adults, the pooled incidence was 3.11 (CI 1.58 to 6.12) injuries per 1000 h and for youths, the incidence was 1.40 (CI 0.50 to 3.94) injuries per 1000 h.

Conclusions

The incidence of floorball injuries is high, especially among women. When considering the growing popularity of floorball, these pooled incidences serve as reference values for future injury prevention programs.

地掷球受伤的发生率--系统回顾和荟萃分析

目标地掷球是一项快速运动；球员在训练和比赛中会进行多次快速转身。本研究旨在调查地掷球运动损伤的发生率。方法检索了 PubMed（美国国立医学图书馆）、Web of Science（Clarivate）、Scopus（Elsevier）和 SPORTDiscus（EBSCO）数据库中从开始到 2023 年 1 月 6 日的数据。如果报告了每次暴露时间内的受伤人数，则该研究符合分析条件。研究方案在 PROSPERO 数据库（CRD42023390659）中进行了前瞻性登记。结果在所有纳入的研究中，每 1000 小时地板球受伤的总发生率为 2.28（置信区间 [CI] 1.27 至 4.10）。就女性而言，每 1000 小时的综合伤害发生率为 2.33（置信区间 [CI] 1.22 至 4.46）；就男性而言，每 1000 小时的综合伤害发生率为 1.98（置信区间 [CI] 1.83 至 2.14）。成人的综合发生率为每 1000 小时 3.11（CI 1.58 至 6.12）次，青少年的综合发生率为每 1000 小时 1.40（CI 0.50 至 3.94）次。考虑到地掷球运动日益普及，这些综合发病率可作为未来伤害预防计划的参考值。
