Abstract

Objective: Despite the high frequency of head impacts in slap fighting, little is known about suspected concussions in this sport. This study examined the frequency and characteristics of observable signs of suspected concussions in slap fighting among male athletes.

Setting: Video-based analysis.

Participants: Athletes who participated in official male power slap matches from January 1, 2023 to June 31, 2024.

Design: Video footage of all official male power slap matches during the study period was retrospectively analyzed by 3 sports medicine specialists experienced in sports injuries.

Main measures: The frequency, total number, and types of observable signs of suspected concussion, and whether the fight continued after signs of suspected concussion were observed.

Results: A total of 115 fights (97.5%) during the study period were available for video review. Of these, 40 (38.4%) resulted in knockouts and 21 (18.3%) in technical knockouts. Observable signs of suspected concussion were observed in 79.1% of fights, averaging 1.41 concussion signs per fight, and 0.31 per slap. Forty-eight (52.7%) of the fights with signs of suspected concussion continued following observed concussion signs.

Conclusion: The frequency, early identification, and management of suspected concussions in slap fighting should be prioritized, with further studies combining clinical assessments strongly recommended.

基于视频的搏击中疑似脑震荡的分析：发生率和特征。

目的：尽管在打耳光运动中头部撞击的频率很高，但对这项运动中疑似脑震荡的了解很少。本研究调查的频率和特点，可观察到的迹象，怀疑脑震荡在男子运动员打耳光。设置：视频分析。参与者：2023年1月1日至2024年6月31日参加过正式男权打耳光比赛的运动员。设计：在研究期间，所有官方男性力量拍打比赛的录像片段由3名有运动损伤经验的运动医学专家进行回顾性分析。主要措施：观察疑似脑震荡出现的频率、总数、类型，观察疑似脑震荡出现后是否继续打架。结果：研究期间共有115场比赛（97.5%）可录像回顾。其中40例（38.4%）发生击倒，21例（18.3%）发生技术性击倒。在79.1%的打斗中观察到可疑的脑震荡迹象，平均每场打斗1.41次脑震荡迹象，每扇耳光0.31次脑震荡迹象。48例（52.7%）有疑似脑震荡症状的打斗在观察到脑震荡症状后继续进行。结论：应重视拍打运动中疑似脑震荡的发生频率、早期识别和处理，并结合临床评估进行进一步研究。
