A case-control study of tackle based head impact event (HIE) risk factors from the first three seasons of the National Rugby League Women's competition
Objective The tackle is the most injurious event in rugby league and carries the greatest risk of concussion. This study aims to replicate previous research conducted in professional men's rugby league by examining the association between selected tackle characteristics and head impact events (HIEs) in women's professional rugby league. Methods We reviewed and coded 83 tackles resulting in an HIE and every tackle (6,318 tackles) that did not resu…
Validation of an instrumented mouthguard in rugby union-a pilot study comparing impact sensor technology to video analysis
BackgroundTo better understand the biomechanical profile of direct head impacts and the game scenarios in which they occur in Rugby Union, there is a need for an on-field validation of a new instrumented mouthguard (IMG) against the reference standard. This study considers the potential of a combined biomechanical (IMG) and video analysis approach to direct head impact recognition, both of which in isolation have limitations. The aim of this stud…
Sport Concussion Assessment Tool-5th Edition (SCAT5)
Objective: To establish normative reference values for the Sport Concussion Assessment Tool-5th Edition (SCAT5) for the new National Rugby League Women's Premiership. Methods: Preseason SCAT5 baseline testing was administered individually to all National Rugby League Women's Premiership players ( N = 117). Testing was completed by the medical staff. Normative reference values were calculated for the components of the SCAT5, including the Standard…
Development of a Machine-Learning-Based Classifier for the Identification of Head and Body Impacts in Elite Level Australian Rules Football Players
Background: Exposure to thousands of head and body impacts during a career in contact and collision sports may contribute to current or later life issues related to brain health. Wearable technology enables the measurement of impact exposure. The validation of impact detection is required for accurate exposure monitoring. In this study, we present a method of automatic identification (classification) of head and body impacts using an instrumented…
