Heading in football. Part 1: development of biomechanical methods to investigate head response.
OBJECTIVES There has been growing controversy regarding long term effects of repeated low severity head impacts such as when heading a football. However, there are few scientific data substantiating these concerns in terms of the biomechanical head response to impact. The present study aimed to develop a research methodology to investigate the biomechanical response of human subjects during int...
متن کاملHeading in football. Part 2: biomechanics of ball heading and head response.
OBJECTIVES Controversy surrounding the long term effects of repeated impacts from heading has raised awareness among the public and the medical community. However, there is little information about the human response to the impacts and what measures can be taken to alter their effect. The objective of the current study was to gain a better understanding of heading biomechanics through the imple...
متن کاملHeading in football. Part 3: effect of ball properties on head response.
OBJECTIVES Head impacts from footballs are an essential part of the game but have been implicated in mild and acute neuropsychological impairment. Ball characteristics have been noted in literature to affect the impact response of the head; however, the biomechanics are not well understood. The present study determined whether ball mass, pressure, and construction characteristics help reduce he...
متن کاملBiomechanical investigation of head impacts in football.
OBJECTIVES This study sought to measure the head accelerations induced from upper extremity to head and head to head impact during the game of football and relate this to the risk of mild traumatic brain injury using the Head Impact Power (HIP) index. Furthermore, measurement of upper neck forces and torques will indicate the potential for serious neck injury. More stringent rules or punitive s...
متن کاملHead impacts during high school football: a biomechanical assessment.
CONTEXT Little is known about the impact biomechanics sustained by players during interscholastic football. OBJECTIVE To characterize the location and magnitude of impacts sustained by players during an interscholastic football season. DESIGN Observational design. SETTING On the field. PATIENTS OR OTHER PARTICIPANTS High school varsity football team (n = 35; age = 16.85 +/- 0.75 years, ...
