To describe and characterize injuries reported in professional soccer athletes participating in the 2019 Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football (CONCACAF) Gold Cup tournament.
Data were collected from electronic medical reports submitted after each match of the 2019 CONCACAF Gold Cup tournament. Reports were generated from a 20-question online survey completed by team physicians from all 16 participating teams. For every recorded injury, a separate survey was completed by team physicians documenting athlete demographic characteristics, context of injury, injury characteristics, and expected time lost from injury.
A total of 62 surveys were distributed, of which 80% (50 of 62) were collected for analysis. A total of 27 injuries (7%) were recorded among the 368 participating athletes. Injuries most frequently occurred during matches (92%, 24 of 27), with a significantly higher number of injuries recorded between the 61st and 75th minutes of play ( < .05). New injuries constituted 85% of all injuries (23 of 27), whereas 15% of injuries (4 of 27) were recorded as recurrences of prior injuries. Defenders had the highest number of injuries (41%, 11 of 27). Injuries to the lower extremities comprised 52% of all injuries (14 of 27), with thigh strains being the most common.
During the 2019 CONCACAF Gold Cup, injuries were recorded in 7% of athletes (27 of 368), with 89% of injuries recorded as occurring during match play, primarily consisting of injuries involving strains to the thigh.
Understanding the epidemiology of soccer (football) injuries can help physicians better educate athletes including their patients.
描述和分析参加2019年中北美洲及加勒比海足球协会（CONCACAF）金杯赛的职业足球运动员所报告的伤病情况。
数据收集自2019年CONCACAF金杯赛每场比赛后提交的电子医疗报告。这些报告来自所有16支参赛队伍的队医完成的一份20个问题的在线调查。对于每一例记录在案的伤病，队医需单独完成一份调查，记录运动员的人口统计学特征、受伤背景、伤病特征以及预计的伤停时间。
共发放62份调查问卷，其中80%（62份中的50份）被回收用于分析。368名参赛运动员中共记录到27例伤病（7%）。伤病最常发生在比赛期间（92%，27例中的24例），在比赛的第61至75分钟记录到的伤病数量显著更多（P<0.05）。新伤占所有伤病的85%（27例中的23例），而15%的伤病（27例中的4例）被记录为旧伤复发。后卫的伤病数量最多（41%，27例中的11例）。下肢伤病占所有伤病的52%（27例中的14例），其中大腿拉伤最为常见。
在2019年CONCACAF金杯赛期间，7%的运动员（368例中的27例）出现伤病，89%的伤病记录为发生在比赛中，主要为大腿拉伤。
了解足球伤病的流行病学情况有助于医生更好地对运动员包括其患者进行教育。
