A prospective study was carried out on 242 patients attending an Accident & Emergency Department with injuries sustained while playing rugby football. The average age was 19.8 years. Head and neck injuries were more prevalent but less serious then in studies carried out before recent law changes. The lower limb was still the part of the body most frequently injured but again there were fewer serious injuries. There was a marked increase in upper limb injuries. Wing forward was the position most likely to give rise to injuries and prop was the least. Poor compliance is still a significant problem with rugby injuries can only lead to an improvement in the safety of the game.
对242名因参加橄榄球运动而受伤前来急诊科就诊的患者进行了一项前瞻性研究。平均年龄为19.8岁。与近期法律变更前进行的研究相比，头部和颈部受伤更为普遍，但严重程度较低。下肢仍然是身体最常受伤的部位，但重伤情况也有所减少。上肢受伤明显增加。边锋是最容易受伤的位置，而支柱前锋是最不容易受伤的。在橄榄球运动中，依从性差仍然是一个重大问题，而受伤情况只能通过改进比赛安全来改善。
