In this study, the prevalence and incidence of injuries and illness are assessed among youth female elite athletes. Instead of solely focusing on time-loss injuries, our study included all substantial and non-substantial health problems (ie, injuries, mental problems and illnesses).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Sixty young elite Dutch female athletes (age: 16.6 years (SD: 2.3), weight: 58.3\u2009kg (SD: 15.1), height: 154.1\u2009cm (SD: 44.2)) participating in soccer (n=23), basketball (n=22) and gymnastic (n=15) talent development programmes were prospectively followed during one season (September 2014 to April 2015). To collect health problem data, all athletes completed the Oslo Sports Trauma Research Center Questionnaire on Health Problems every other week. Main outcome measures were average prevalence of injury and incidence density of injury.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>At any given time, 47.9% of the athletes reported an injury (95%\u2009CI 43.6% to 52.6%) and 9.1% reported an illness (95%\u2009CI 5.1 to 19.0). The average injury incidence density was 8.6 per 1000\u2009hours of athlete exposure. The average number of self-reported injuries per athlete per season was significantly higher in soccer athletes (4.3\u00b12.7) than in basketball athletes (2.6\u00b12.0) (p=0.03) and not significantly higher than in the gymnastic squad. The knee and the ankle were two of the most common injury locations for all squads. Knee injuries in basketball and soccer and heel injuries in the gymnastic squad had the highest impact on sports participation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>High prevalence of self-reported injuries among talented female athletes suggests that future efforts towards their prevention are warranted.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjsem-2016-000199","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,24]],"date-time":"2017-04-24T20:10:15Z","timestamp":1493064615000},"page":"e000199","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1136\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":39,"title":["High prevalence of self-reported injuries and illnesses in talented female athletes"],"prefix":"10.1136","volume":"3","author":[{"given":"A.","family":"Richardson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Sports and Nutrition, Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences, Amsterdam, The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"B.","family":"Clarsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Norwegian School of Sports Sciences, Oslo Sports Trauma Research Center, Oslo, Norway"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"E.A.L.M","family":"Verhagen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Public and Occupational Health, EMGO, VU Medisch Centrum School of Medical Sciences, Amsterdam, The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J.H.","family":"Stubbe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Sports and Nutrition, Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences, Amsterdam, The Netherlands"},{"name":"Codarts University of the Arts, Rotterdam, The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"239","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,4,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"2025083109370794000_3.1.e000199.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bjsports-2012-091524"},{"key":"2025083109370794000_3.1.e000199.2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bjsports-2013-093299"},{"key":"2025083109370794000_3.1.e000199.3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0363546514567298"},{"key":"2025083109370794000_3.1.e000199.4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"187","DOI":"10.1159\/000321078","article-title":"Aetiology and prevention of injuries in elite young athletes","volume":"56","author":"Maffulli","year":"2011","journal-title":"Med Sport Sci"},{"key":"2025083109370794000_3.1.e000199.5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bjsports-2012-091385"},{"key":"2025083109370794000_3.1.e000199.6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bjsports-2014-093832"},{"key":"2025083109370794000_3.1.e000199.7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Pluim BM , Loeffen FG , Clarsen B , et al .
