EPIDEMIOLOGY of NECK INJURIES ACCOMPANYING SPORT CONCUSSIONS in YOUTH OVER a 13-YEAR PERIOD IN a COMMUNITY-BASED HEALTHCARE SYSTEM.

摘要: Background The same trauma that produces concussion may also produce neck injury. signs of and injury are similar, symptoms after acceleration-deceleration to the head-neck complex do not accurately discriminate between them. Research on epidemiology among sport-concussed youth is sparse. Purpose purpose this study was investigate diagnosed in non-sport-related (Non-SRC) versus sport-related (SRC) by age, sex, sport. Study design Cross-sectional epidemiologic study. Methods De-identified data from community-based electronic health records over 13 years were extracted analyze rates characteristics injuries non-SRCs SRCs aged five 21. Neck diagnosis prevalence odds ratios calculated estimate risk concussed youth, comparing age sex. Results Sixteen thousand, eight hundred eighty-five extracted, which 3,040 2,775 21 identified cross-filtering keywords (e.g., football, basketball, soccer, running, swimming, batting, horseback riding, skiing, etc.) with all ICD-9 ICD-10 codes. (7.2%) significantly different than (12.1%, p < 0.000). diagnoses more prevalent females overall (p < 0.000) (p < 0.000). higher males SRC (p = 0.164).Among exposed concussions, likely be accompanied a (OR 1.66; 95% CI 1.39 1.98; Similarly, female-to-male proportion compared (IPR 1.90, 1.60 2.25, p < 0.000).Sports highest differ sports concussion-related both sexes. Conclusions (12.1 vs. 7.2%, p < 0.001), at 14 accompanying (6.1% difference;
