Gråstén, A. “…Background: Concussions in ice hockey remain a major concern, especially among young players. …”

Gould, S., Crawford, A. E., Picken, L., Serrano, D., Gabriel, F. D., McGwin, G., Chandran, A., Schrum, K. “…Head injuries occurred with high frequency. Concussion was the most frequently reported type. More than 50% of athletes with self-reported concussion denied receiving medical treatment. …”

Murphy, A., Post, A., Gilchrist, M. D., Hoshizaki, B. “…Helmets are used to help reduce the risk of head and brain injury; however, the rates of concussion remain unaffected. Recently, technology designed to reduce the rotational accelerations associated with concussion have been incorporated into equestrian helmets, but it is unknown the efficacy of these technologies under the impact conditions within this sporting environment. …”

Best, R., Williams, J. M., Pearce, J. “…The practical challenges of the equestrian environment, including competitive, personal, and professional factors, injury and concussion, and female participation, are discussed to better highlight novelty within equestrian disciplines compared to more commonly studied sports. …”

Glace, B. W., Kremenic, I. J., Hogan, D. E., Kwiecien, S. Y. “…Objectives: Equestrians have a high risk of concussions per hospital records. However, most concussions occur in private settings where concussions are not tracked. …”

Clark, J. M., Connor, T. A., Post, A., Hoshizaki, T. B., Gilchrist, M. D. “…The observed response magnitudes obtained in this study suggest that equestrian helmet design should be improved, not only for impacts to rigid surfaces but also to compliant surfaces as response magnitudes for impacts to soft surfaces were still within the reported range for concussion in the literature.…”

Clark, J. M., Williams, C., Clissold, J., McGoldrick, A., Hill, J., Annaidh, A. N., Gilchrist, M. D. “…A total of 73 head injury incidents afforded a set of documentary data that were analysed: these involved 69 concussions, two hematomas, two orbital fractures, a fractured zygoma, and a fractured mandible. …”

Zahira, T., Henry, T., Pilato, M. L. “…Equestrian sports, in general, pose a significant risk of concussion. Minimizing the risk of concussion has been a focal point in recent years. …”

Clark, J. M., Adanty, K., Post, A., Hoshizaki, T. B., Clissold, J., McGoldrick, A., Hill, J., Annaidh, A. N., Gilchrist, M. D. “…Design: The present study examined the biomechanics of real-world equestrian accidents and developed thresholds for the occurrence of concussive injury. Methods: Twenty-five concussive and 25 non-concussive falls in equestrian sports were reconstructed using a combination of video analysis, computational and physical reconstruction methods. …”

O'Connor, S., Warrington, G., McGoldrick, A., Cullen, S. J. “…Soft tissue injuries were predominant in flat and jump racing (61.54% and 68.80%, respectively), with fractures the second most common injury (15.38% and 18.06%, respectively). Concussions were more prevalent from flat-racing falls (incidence rate ratio = 0.30; 95% CI = 0.15, 0.61). …”

Mott, R., Ellis, J. “…Current literature shows that shoeing improves gait quality but at the risk of increasing concussion to the limbs. To make an informed decision on whether to shoe or not, it is important to quantify if the benefit is worth the risk. …”
