Training-related concussions in men's English Premiership Rugby Union: an eight-season prospective cohort study of 153 243 player-weeks
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to investigate the incidence, severity, burden, and risk factors associated with training-related concussions in elite men's Rugby Union over eight seasons. They found an incidence rate of 0.23 concussions per 1000 hours of training, with full-contact and preseason training significantly increasing the risk of such injuries. The study highlights the need for strategic planning of training sessions to mitigate concussion risks.
