U.S. study showed that the lights that dominate a football when it comes to injured athletes in U.S. high school concussion of the brain, but the other sports have the same risk as well.
The results were published in the journal American Journal of Sports Medicine, American Journal of Sports
Medicine in a time of growing concern over the injured young athletes in the United States concussion.
The researchers said that in the period between 2008 and 2010 high school athletes suffered from this injury, the U.S. rate of 2.5 per 10,000 times hampered by the pitch, whether for training sessions or competitions in sports and that the domain in question has been overwhelming.
Said Natalie Mkelvin senior researcher at the Institute of Research Hospital, Nationwide Children's in Columbus, Ohio, "these injuries do not occur only in sports, which include full contact between the players."
There were about half the casualties, or about 47 percent in American football. My sport but football and basketball for girls and boys wrestling and ice hockey in the other games that take the risk of head injury.
There were more than eight percent of all cases of concussion in football while the girls represented the cases because of the exercise of each of the girls' basketball and wrestling for boys about six percent.
The ice hockey for boys lower percentage of the total injuries, concussion, but superior to all other games when it comes to the extent of injury. Of all injuries in boys ice hockey injury was a concussion of the brain is 22 percent.
And most head injuries occur due to fusion between the players, but some kids in sports that do not involve direct contact between the players such as softball, gymnastics and swimming were strikes to the head.
The researchers said the study showed that the risk of injury to girls concussion higher than among boys as girls had the highest injury rate of 70 percent of boys in sports that involve a comparison between the sexes.
Said Christie Collins, a researcher Hospital Nationwide Children it was not clear why it is linked to the strength of the neck less among girls.
