Abstract

Objectives: To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of injuries sustained at the under 20s (U20) Men's European Lacrosse Championships.

Method: Injury surveillance data was prospectively collected during the 2024 U20 European Lacrosse Championships (Wrocław, Poland). A standardized electronic reporting system based on the 2020 IOC consensus statement was used. Injury incidence was reported per 1000 match-player-hours (match-p-h).

Results: A total of 55 match-related injuries were reported with an injury incidence rate of 88.7 injuries per 1000 match-p-h (66.8-115.5 CI). The majority of injuries were non-time-loss (82%, 72.6 per 1000 match-p-h, 52.9-97.1 CI), 15% resulted in time-loss (>24 hours lost due to injury, 12.9 per 1000 match-p-h, 5.6-25.4 CI), and 4% reported as unknown (3.2 per 1000 match-p-h, 0.4-11.7 CI). Most injuries had a time-loss lasting between 0-1 day (73%; 64.5 per 1000 match-p-h, 46.1-87.9 CI). The onset of injury was predominantly as a result of sudden-acute trauma (73%; 64.5 per 1000 match-p-h, 46.1-87.9 CI), with contact mechanisms accounting for 67% (59.7 per 1000 match-p-h, 42.0-82.3 CI). The most frequent injuries reported were anterior thigh muscle contusion (9%; 8.1 per 1000 match-p-h, 2.6-18.8 CI), calf muscle injury (9%; 8.1 per 1000 match-p-h, 2.6-18.8 CI), ankle sprain (7%, 6.5 per 1000 match-p-h, 1.8-16.5 CI), and knee contusion (7%, 6.5 per 1000 match-p-h, 1.8-16.5 CI).

Conclusions: The injury incidence during the 2024 U20 Men's European Lacrosse Championships was high compared to similar youth field sports, though most injuries did not result in time-loss. The findings should be used to inform preparations for future age-group international lacrosse tournaments.

2024年20岁以下欧洲男子曲棍球锦标赛期间的伤病监测。

目的：调查20岁以下（U20）欧洲男子曲棍球锦标赛受伤的流行病学特征。方法：前瞻性收集2024年U20欧洲曲棍球锦标赛（Wrocław，波兰）期间的损伤监测数据。采用了基于2020年国际奥委会共识声明的标准化电子报告系统。报告了每1000个比赛球员小时（match-p-h）的受伤发生率。结果：共报告比赛相关损伤55例，损伤发生率为88.7例/ 1000 match-p-h （66.8-115.5 CI）。大多数损伤是非时间损失（82%,72.6 / 1000 match-p-h 52.9-97.1 CI）， 15%导致时间损失（因损伤损失24小时，12.9 / 1000 match-p-h 5.6-25.4 CI）， 4%报告为未知（3.2 / 1000 match-p-h 0.4-11.7 CI）。大多数损伤的时间损失在0-1天之间（73%;64.5 / 1000 match-p-h 46.1-87.9 CI）。损伤的发生主要是由于突发性急性创伤（73%;64.5 / 1000 match-p-h 46.1-87.9 CI），接触机制占67% （59.7 / 1000 match-p-h 42.0-82.3 CI）。最常见的损伤报告是大腿前肌挫伤（9%，每1000 match-p-h 2.6-18.8 CI中有8.1例），小腿肌肉损伤（9%，每1000 match-p-h 2.6-18.8 CI中有8.1例），脚踝扭伤（7%，每1000 match-p-h 1.8-16.5 CI中有6.5例）和膝盖挫伤（7%，每1000 match-p-h 1.8-16.5 CI中有6.5例）。结论：与同类青少年场地运动相比，2024年U20欧洲男子长曲棍球锦标赛期间的损伤发生率较高，但大多数损伤并未造成时间损失。研究结果应用于未来年龄组国际曲棍球比赛的准备工作。

期刊介绍： The Physician and Sportsmedicine is a peer-reviewed, clinically oriented publication for primary care physicians. We examine the latest drug discoveries to advance treatment and recovery, and take into account the medical aspects of exercise therapy for a given condition. We cover the latest primary care-focused treatments serving the needs of our active patient population, and assess the limits these treatments govern in stabilization and recovery. The Physician and Sportsmedicine is a peer-to-peer method of communicating the latest research to aid primary care physicians’ advancement in methods of care and treatment. We routinely cover such topics as: managing chronic disease, surgical techniques in preventing and managing injuries, the latest advancements in treatments for helping patients lose weight, and related exercise and nutrition topics that can impact the patient during recovery and modification.
