Head kinematics and injury analysis in elite bobsleigh athletes throughout a world cup tour
(Kopfkinematik und Verletzungsanalyse bei Elite-Bobfahrern während einer Weltcup-Tour )
Key Points
- The frequency and magnitude of head acceleration events during bobsleigh participation were similar between sexes (male versus female), positions (pilot versus push), and setting (training versus competition).
- Despite the high prevalence of head acceleration events (peak linear acceleration > 8g), only 1 sport-related concussion was observed throughout the World Cup Tour.
- Time-loss injury incidence rates during a World Cup Tour were 24.55 injuries per 1000 athlete-exposures, with males (sex) and pilots (position) sustaining more injuries than females and push athletes.
