Self-reported concussion prevalence, post-injury help-seeking behaviour, and associated risk factors among volleyball players

SRC occur in volleyball with a lifetime prevalence of 35%, yet many incidents go undiagnosed and unmanaged. Older, more experienced players had greater odds of reporting a SRC, while professional-level athletes showed reduced odds when all factors are considered. Increased awareness and appropriate guidance are needed across all levels in volleyball.

Abstract

SRC occur in volleyball with a lifetime prevalence of 35%, yet many incidents go undiagnosed and unmanaged. Older, more experienced players had greater odds of reporting a SRC, while professional-level athletes showed reduced odds when all factors are considered. Increased awareness and appropriate guidance are needed across all levels in volleyball.
