This exploratory video analysis study aimed to review characteristics of potential head injury situations during a men's professional international football tournament. For 64 matches of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022™ FIFA analysts used match footage to record all potential head injury situations. A potential head injury situation was defined as a player staying down for more than 5 s and/or requesting medical attention, and where the body impact location included the player's head. Characteristics were further recorded for match, player (i.e. player action including aerial duels), medical assessment, and outcome (e.g. substitution). Descriptive statistics are reported as well as Pearson's Chi-squared test (or Fisher's exact test) to explore potential head injury situations more likely to result in medical attention. In total, 149 potential head injury situations occurred in 56 matches (mean 2.33/match, range 0-6) involving 117 players. Eight matches resulted in no incidents. Aerial duels were the most frequent match characteristic leading to a potential head injury situation. Injury stoppage with on-pitch medical assessment occurred in 35 of the 149 potential head injury situations (23%), with pitch-side assessment also occurring in 15 situations (10%), resulting in four concussion substitutions. Players were more likely to require medical attention for potential head injuries sustained when the ball was loose (χ = 6.88; = 0.038) when the injured player was jumping (FET = 0.044) and for head-to-head contact (FET = <0.001). Further exploration of aerial duels during match play which do and do not lead to potential and actual head injuries is recommended.
这项探索性视频分析研究旨在回顾一项男子职业国际足球锦标赛期间潜在头部受伤情况的特征。针对2022年卡塔尔世界杯™的64场比赛，国际足联分析师使用比赛录像记录了所有潜在头部受伤情况。潜在头部受伤情况定义为球员倒地超过5秒和/或寻求医疗护理，且身体撞击部位包括球员头部。还进一步记录了比赛、球员（即包括空中对抗在内的球员动作）、医疗评估和结果（如换人）的特征。报告了描述性统计数据以及皮尔逊卡方检验（或费舍尔精确检验），以探究更有可能导致医疗护理的潜在头部受伤情况。总共在56场比赛（平均每场2.33次，范围为0 - 6次）中发生了149起潜在头部受伤情况，涉及117名球员。八场比赛未发生此类事件。空中对抗是导致潜在头部受伤情况最常见的比赛特征。在149起潜在头部受伤情况中，有35起（23%）在场上进行了医疗评估导致比赛中断，还有15起（10%）在边线进行了评估，导致四次因脑震荡换人。当球处于松散状态时（χ = 6.88；P = 0.038）、受伤球员正在跳跃时（费舍尔精确检验P = 0.044）以及头部对头部接触时（费舍尔精确检验P < 0.001），球员因潜在头部受伤而更有可能需要医疗护理。建议进一步探究比赛中的空中对抗，哪些会导致以及哪些不会导致潜在和实际的头部受伤。
