Ice hockey has been identified as a sport with a high risk for concussions. Given the health sequelae associated with the injury, a great deal of attention has been placed on its diagnosis, management and return-to-play protocols. The highest level of ice hockey in North America is played in the National Hockey League (NHL), and concussions pose a serious threat to the health of the players and the game itself. Unfortunately, the scientific literature on concussions in ice hockey is derived mostly from research conducted on youth and amateur levels of play, leaving a gap in our knowledge at the professional level. This narrative review attempts to summarize what is known about concussion incidence, mechanisms of injury and risk factors in the NHL.
冰球已被认定为一项脑震荡风险很高的运动。鉴于与该损伤相关的健康后遗症，人们对其诊断、管理及重返比赛方案给予了高度关注。北美冰球的最高水平赛事在国家冰球联盟（NHL）中进行，脑震荡对球员健康及赛事本身都构成了严重威胁。不幸的是，关于冰球运动中脑震荡的科学文献大多来自对青少年和业余水平比赛的研究，在职业层面的知识方面存在空白。本叙述性综述试图总结国家冰球联盟中有关脑震荡发生率、损伤机制及风险因素的已知情况。
