背景:全国大学生体育协会将女子橄榄球列为新兴运动。很少有研究探讨了受伤率在女子大学橄榄球或比较受伤率之间的sexual.Hypothesis:受伤率将不同的女性和男性校际俱乐部橄榄球player.Study设计:描述性epidemiologystudy.Methods:五年的伤害数据收集从男子和女子橄榄球队在美国服务学院使用该机构的伤害监测系统。主要研究结果是研究期间每10,000名运动员暴露的损伤发生率。发病率比(IRRs)计算使用泊松分布比较率按性别。结果:在研究期间,受伤的总体发病率高30%(IRR = 1.30,95%CI:1.09,1.54)男性与女性相比,然而,受伤的分布因性别而异。女性ACL损伤发生率是男性的5.3倍(IRR = 5.32,95%CI:1.33,30.53)。男性发生骨折的可能性是男性的2.5倍(IRR = 2.54,95% CI:1.03,7.52)。男性肩锁关节损伤发生率是女性的2.2倍(IRR = 2.19,95% CI:1.03,5.19)。男性6.6倍(IRR = 6.55,95%CI:2.65,20.91)更容易有一个开放性伤口比women.Conclusion:有不同的伤害率和模式之间的女性和男性的美国橄榄球运动员。
Background: The National Collegiate Athletic Association classifies women's rugby as an emerging sport. Few studies have examined the injury rates in women's collegiate rugby or compared injury rates between sexes.Hypothesis: Injury rates will differ between female and male intercollegiate club rugby players.Study Design: Descriptive epidemiological study.Methods: Five years of injury data were collected from the men's and women's rugby teams at a US service academy using the institution's injury surveillance system. The primary outcome of interest was the incidence rate of injury during the study period per 10,000 athlete exposures. Incidence rate ratios (IRRs) were calculated using a Poisson distribution to compare the rates by sex.Results: During the study period, the overall incidence rate for injury was 30% higher (IRR = 1.30, 95% CI: 1.09, 1.54) among men when compared with women; however, the distribution of injuries varied by sex. The incidence rate for ACL injury among women was 5.3 times (IRR = 5.32, 95% CI: 1.33, 30.53) higher compared with that among men. Men were 2.5 times (IRR = 2.54, 95% CI: 1.03, 7.52) more likely to sustain a fracture. The rate of acromioclavicular joint injury was 2.2 times (IRR = 2.19, 95% CI: 1.03, 5.19) higher among men when compared with women. Men were 6.6 times (IRR = 6.55, 95% CI: 2.65, 20.91) more likely to have an open wound than women.Conclusion: There are differences in injury rates and patterns between female and male American rugby players.
