Sports-related injuries increase healthcare cost burden, and in some instances have harmful long term physical and psychological implications. There is currently a lack of comprehensive data on temporal injury trends across professional North American sports. The purpose of this study was to compare temporal trends, according to incidence and time-loss injuries, by body part in professional baseball, basketball, football, and ice hockey. Public injury data from Major League Baseball, National Basketball Association, National Football League, and National Hockey League from 2007 to December 2019 were extracted and used. A mean of 62.49 injuries per 100 players per season was recorded for all professional sports. The groin/hip/thigh reported the greatest season proportional injury incidence for baseball, football, and ice hockey, with the groin/hip/thigh as the third highest injury incidence in basketball. When stratifying by more specific body part groupings, the knee demonstrated the greatest injury proportional incidence for basketball, football, and ice hockey, with the knee as the third highest proportional injury incidence for baseball. There was an increased in basketball ankle injuries following 2011-2012 season. Football and ice hockey reported the greatest concussion proportion incidence, with football demonstrating an increase in concussions over time, and a substantial increase in concussions from the 2014 to 2015 season. These publicly extracted data and findings can be used as a shared resource for professional baseball, basketball, football, and ice hockey for future individual and across sport collaborations concerning resource allocation and decision making in order to improve player health.
运动相关损伤增加了医疗保健成本负担，在某些情况下还会对身体和心理造成长期的不良影响。目前，关于北美的职业体育中整体的时间性损伤趋势，还缺乏全面的数据。本研究旨在比较棒球、篮球、美式足球和冰球中，按发病率和伤停时间损失的身体部位的时间性损伤趋势。从 2007 年到 2019 年 12 月，提取了美国职棒大联盟、美国国家篮球协会、美国国家橄榄球联盟和国家冰球联盟的公共伤病史数据并进行了分析。所有职业体育的平均每 100 名球员每赛季有 62.49 例损伤。腹股沟/臀部/大腿是棒球、美式足球和冰球的受伤比例最高的部位，而在篮球中则排名第三。按更具体的身体部位分组分层后，膝关节在篮球、美式足球和冰球中显示出了最高的损伤比例发病率，在棒球中排名第三。篮球的踝关节损伤在 2011-2012 赛季后有所增加。美式足球和冰球的脑震荡比例发病率最高，其中美式足球的脑震荡发病率随时间增加，而从 2014-2015 赛季开始，脑震荡的数量显著增加。这些公开提取的数据和发现可作为职业棒球、篮球、美式足球和冰球的共享资源，用于未来个人和跨运动的合作，以便在资源分配和决策方面提高运动员的健康水平。
