The aim of this study was to describe the incidence, nature and causes of match injuries in men's international rugby sevens and to compare these to values for international rugby fifteens. The study comprised a 10-season, whole population, prospective study of the Sevens World Series. Over the ten seasons, the overall incidence of injury was 122.4 (95% CI = 116.3 to 128.9) injuries/1000 player-match-hours and the mean severity of injury was 43.0 (95% CI = 40.3 to 45.7) days-absence. There was an increasing trend in the incidence of injury over the ten-season period (slope = 5.3 injuries/1000 player-hours/season, R = 0.68, p = 0.003) but no trend in the mean severity of injury (slope = 0.02 days/season, R < 0.01, p = 0.971). Head/face (15.7%), knee (15.6%), ankle (15.4%) and shoulder/clavicle (11.9%) were the most common injury locations and ligament sprain (30.5%), muscle strain (16.4%), concussion (12.6%) and haematoma/bruise (10.6%) the most common types of injury sustained. Being-tackled (33.1%), tackling (23.4%), running (16.1%) and collisions (12.4%) were the most common events leading to injury. These results indicate that the burden of injury in international rugby sevens is two to three times higher than that reported for international rugby fifteens.
本研究旨在描述男子国际七人制橄榄球比赛中的伤病发生率、性质和原因，并将其与国际十五人制橄榄球的相关数据进行比较。该研究包括十赛季的七人制世界系列赛的全人群前瞻性研究。在十个赛季中，总损伤发生率为 122.4（95%CI=116.3 至 128.9）/1000 名球员-比赛小时，平均损伤严重度为 43.0（95%CI=40.3 至 45.7）天缺勤。在十赛季期间，损伤发生率呈上升趋势（斜率=5.3/1000 名球员-小时/赛季，R=0.68，p=0.003），但损伤严重度无明显趋势（斜率=0.02 天/赛季，R<0.01，p=0.971）。头部/面部（15.7%）、膝盖（15.6%）、脚踝（15.4%）和肩部/锁骨（11.9%）是最常见的受伤部位，韧带扭伤（30.5%）、肌肉拉伤（16.4%）、脑震荡（12.6%）和血肿/瘀伤（10.6%）是最常见的受伤类型。被擒抱（33.1%）、擒抱（23.4%）、奔跑（16.1%）和碰撞（12.4%）是导致受伤的最常见事件。这些结果表明，国际七人制橄榄球的伤病负担是国际十五人制橄榄球的两到三倍。
