Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the profiles and mechanisms of injuries using online injury surveillance system(OISS) with match video files at 2017 World Taekowndo Championship (WTC) athletes.
Me thods: This study design was a prospective epidemiological study with video analysis. All injuries were recordedduring the 2017 WTC using the OISS developed by the International Olympic Committee. A total of 971 athleteswho participated in the 2017 WTC were enrolled. Each injury was recorded retrospectively by three camerassurrounding each court. Injury profiles and mechanisms were calculated as; percent injury rate, injury rate/100athlete-exposures, injury location, type, and mechanism via the injury surveillance system and video analysis form.
Results: There were 74 injuries, which corresponded to an overall incidence of 13.5 injuries (95% confidence interval,11.2?15.8) per 100 athletes. The face (27.0%), hand/finger (23.0%), knee (14.9%), and ankle (10.8%) were mostfrequently injured parts. Contusions (37.8%), fracture and ligament sprains (20.3%) were the most frequently injurytypes. The main mechanism for contact injury is while attacking with the roundhouse kick (66.2%), or not usedblock (81.1%). There were also noncontact injuries (24.3%).
Conclusion: The incidence of injuries to the face, hand/fingers, knee, and ankle was relatively high. To preventcontact injuries, protective headgear and better shin guards and hand protectors need to be developed. As for thenoncontact injuries, we recommend hamstring strengthening exercises, and neuromuscular training to strengthenthe tendons and ligaments protecting the ankle and knee joints.
