Globally, soccer is the most popular team sport, unifying many fans all around the world. The epidemiological studies so far have confirmed that head playing and hitting the ball with head may cause minor head injuries, which exert their effects in a cumulative way.
Literature search for this review was conducted and data about traumatic brain injury collected from various sources.
The consequences of head injury are evident as chronic changes in cognition, including disturbances in concentration and slowing of mental and physical agility.
Various recommendations have been issued for the prevention of chronic negative cumulative effects of soccer ball head playing. In addition, the professional soccer players are also exposed to more intense craniocerebral trauma, such as concussions and contusions. These patients require treatment of skilled sports physicians, neurologists and neurosurgeons and some may need long to return to the sport scene again.
在全球范围内,足球是最受欢迎的团队运动,团结了世界各地的众多球迷。迄今为止的流行病学研究证实,头球比赛和用头顶球可能会导致轻微的头部损伤,这些损伤会以累积的方式产生影响。
进行了本次综述的文献检索,并从各种来源收集了有关创伤性脑损伤的数据。
头部损伤的后果表现为认知方面的慢性变化,包括注意力不集中以及精神和身体敏捷性的下降。
已经发布了各种建议,以预防足球头球比赛产生的慢性负面累积影响。此外,职业足球运动员还面临更严重的颅脑创伤,如脑震荡和挫伤。这些患者需要熟练的运动医生、神经科医生和神经外科医生进行治疗,有些人可能需要很长时间才能再次重返赛场。
