Electric scooter-associated injury incidence, use patterns, and personal motivations among collegiate student-athletes: A survey-based study.
Despite e-scooters' increasing popularity on college campuses, there is a paucity of data on scooter-related injuries among collegiate student-athletes.
Objective: Investigate e-scooter usage, scooter-associated injury incidence, and motivating factors for e-scooter utilization by student-athletes.
Participants: 186 collegiate athletes at a single NCAA Division 1 university.
Methods: All participants completed a cross-sectional survey investigating attitudes surrounding e-scooters and related injuries. Descriptive and inferential statistical analyses were employed, including Fisher's exact testing and logistic regression.
Results: Of the surveyed athletes, 132 (71.0%) reported current/prior scooter use with 24 (12.9%) reporting riding injuries. Incidence Proportion of scooter-related injuries totaled 18.2%. Injuries were not associated with surface type (p = 0.25), riding frequency (p = 0.15), or riding duration (p = 0.15).
Conclusions: E-scooters have a substantial usage footprint amongst college athletes and pose unique health risks on campuses. Understanding dynamics of student-athletes regarding e-scooters is vital to enhance safety and prevent avoidable injuries.
