Abstract

Background: Injury and illness surveillance, and epidemiological studies, are fundamental elements of concerted efforts to protect the health of the athlete. To encourage consistency in the definitions and methodology used, and to enable data across studies to be compared, research groups have published 11 sport- or setting-specific consensus statements on sports injury (and, eventually, illnesses) epidemiology to date.

Objective: To further strengthen consistency in data collection, injury definitions, and research reporting through an updated set of recommendations for sports injury and illness studies, including a new Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) checklist extension.

Study design: Consensus statement of the International Olympic Committee (IOC).

Methods: The IOC invited a working group of international experts to review relevant literature and provide recommendations. The procedure included an open online survey, several stages of text drafting and consultation by working groups, and a 3-day consensus meeting in October 2019.

Results: This statement includes recommendations for data collection and research reporting covering key components: defining and classifying health problems, severity of health problems, capturing and reporting athlete exposure, expressing risk, burden of health problems, study population characteristics, and data collection methods. Based on these, we also developed a new reporting guideline as a STROBE extension-the STROBE Sports Injury and Illness Surveillance (STROBE-SIIS).

Conclusion: The IOC encourages ongoing in- and out-of-competition surveillance programs and studies to describe injury and illness trends and patterns, understand their causes, and develop measures to protect the health of the athlete. The implementation of the methods outlined in this statement will advance consistency in data collection and research reporting.

Keywords: STROBE; epidemiologic methods; illness; injuries; surveillance.

Figure 3.

Classification tree for subsequent health problems (adapted from Hamilton et al). Definitions: (1) index injury (illness) is the first recorded injury (illness), and (2) subsequent injury (illness) is any injury (illness) occurring after the index injury (illness): (a) subsequent injury to a different location than the index injury (subsequent illness involving a different system than the index illness), (b) subsequent injury to the same location but of a different tissue type than the index injury (subsequent illness involving the same system but of a different type/other diagnosis), or (c) subsequent recurrent injury (illness) is a subsequent injury to the same site and of the same type as the index injury (subsequent illness involving the same system and type as the index illness). Third, fourth, or more health problems should be assessed relative to the initial index health problem and all other previous ones (eg, second and third health problems).

Example of severity scores being used to track the severity of 3 “typical” health problems. Each black dot represents the weekly severity score. The area in orange represents a gradual-onset injury (cumulative severity score [sum of weekly scores, as the area under the curve] = 1820), the black area represents a short-duration illness (score = 100), and the dark red area represents an acute medial collateral ligament injury (score = 362).
