Abstract

Objective: To compare match event rates and suspected injury and concussion rates between 7-a-side (7s) and 15-a-side (15s) female and male high school rugby union players using video analysis (VA).

Design: Cross-sectional video analysis study.

Setting: Alberta high school rugby competitions.

Participants: Senior high school rugby players (ages 14-18 years) in Calgary, Alberta, participating in the March to June 2022 season.

Assessment of risk factors: Video analysis of high school rugby matches in 7s and 15s.

Main outcome measures: Univariate Poisson regression analyses were used to determine rates of match events, video-identified suspected injuries, and suspected concussions per 1000-player-hours. Incidence rates and incidence rate ratios (IRR) were used to compare between 7s and 15s (15s referent group) and females and males (male referent group).

Results: Suspected injury rates ranged from 115.0 to 223.6/1000 match hours, while suspected concussion rates ranged from 61.5 to 93.2/1000 hours. The male 7s cohort reported the highest suspected injury and suspected concussion rate, with no significant differences between male or female cohorts across formats. The tackle accounted for 84.6% of all injuries. Despite 30% more tackles in female compared with male 15s, tackle-related injury rates were similar between sexes [IRR = 1.1 (95% CIs: 0.7-1.6)].

Conclusions: This study did not find any differences in suspected injury or suspected concussion rates between sexes or formats of the game. The proportion of injuries recorded in the tackle and the high reported suspected injury rates does suggest the need for further investigation into tackle proficiency, injury prevention intervention evaluation, and potential law changes.

加拿大高中15岁和7岁橄榄球运动员疑似受伤、疑似脑震荡和比赛事件的比较。
目的:采用视频分析(VA)方法比较高中橄榄球联盟7人制(7s)和15人制(15s)男女球员的比赛事件率、疑似受伤率和脑震荡率。设计:横断面视频分析研究。背景:阿尔伯塔高中橄榄球比赛。参与者:阿尔伯塔省卡尔加里的高中橄榄球运动员(14-18岁),参加2022年3月至6月的赛季。危险因素评估:1970年代和1970年代高中橄榄球比赛录像分析。主要结果测量:使用单变量泊松回归分析来确定比赛事件、视频识别的疑似损伤和每1000个球员小时的疑似脑震荡的发生率。采用发病率和发病率比(IRR)比较7s和15s (15s参照组)以及女性和男性(男性参照组)之间的差异。结果:疑似损伤率为115.0 ~ 223.6/1000小时,疑似脑震荡率为61.5 ~ 93.2/1000小时。男性7s队列报告了最高的疑似损伤和疑似脑震荡率,在不同格式的男性和女性队列之间没有显著差异。铲球占所有伤病的84.6%。尽管15岁的女性铲球次数比男性多30%,但铲球相关伤害率在性别之间相似[IRR = 1.1 (95% ci: 0.7-1.6)]。结论:这项研究没有发现任何性别或游戏形式之间在疑似受伤或疑似脑震荡发生率上的差异。在铲球中记录的受伤比例和高报告的疑似受伤率确实表明需要进一步调查铲球熟练程度,伤害预防干预评估和潜在的法律修改。
