Abstract:

Background: Athletes in mixed martial arts (MMA) and Muay Thai (MT) face challenges before, during, and after competition, including hydration testing, disordered eating (DE), rapid weight changes (RWC), and health problems (HP). These issues can affect athletes' health and performance and raise regulatory and safety concerns for governing bodies like the Western Australia Combat Sports Commission (WACSC). However, these challenges are poorly described in the context of MMA and MT, as most of the existing research focuses on Olympic combat sports. This thesis addresses these challenges in MMA

Abstract:

Sports injuries are a significant public health burden both in Australia, and worldwide. Preventing injuries in sports settings is thus an important public health goal. It is now generally accepted that sports injuries are, like other unintentional injuries, largely preventable. Yet intractable problems remain. Complexity theory is harnessed in this research as a means of understanding such problems. To provide new insights into the complexity of sports safety promotion, this research consisted of a qualitative case study design underpinned by constructivist assumptions. Study A documented spo

Abstract:

The purposes of this study were to explore the current scenario of interscholastic athletics in regards to the existence and enforcement of lightning safety policies applied to athletic outdoor activities, and to identify the common practices related to lightning safety currently utilized. The results showed that 87.2% of the respondents (N=804) have lightning safety policies. However, only 90.3% of the respondents who have lightning safety policies actually enforce them. It seems that during practices coaches are most commonly responsible for making the decision to stop/resume activity, and t

Abstract:

Athletes wear mouthguards to decrease the risk of injuries. However, many athletes resist wearing mouthguards due to problems with speech and breathing during play. Breathing difficulties may suggest limitations with ventilation. The purpose of this study was to examine peak inspiratory and peak expiratory air flow at different ventilatory rates using various types of mouthguards and a no mouthguard condition. Mouthguards were fitted into a dental model and air was ventilated through the model at three flow rates (30, 45, 60 strokes·min-1) using 2 and 3 L syringes. Flows were recorded u

Abstract:

In recent times, the sports sector across the globe has attracted economic interests both from the public and the private sector. For example, the cost of hosting the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil was estimated at over $14.5 billion, with huge investments made intorenovating old stadia and building new ones in preparation for the games. Similarly, the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow generated over 5,000 jobs and apprenticeships for the locals, £200m worth of contracts to local firms, £198m investments in sporting facilities, and £700m worth of transport-related infrastructural development.

Physical activity in youth has many benefits, but parallel to these benefits, sport related injuries pose considerable risks. It is important to public health to address sport related injuries, particularly those affecting young people, who comprise the majority of participants in organised sport in Sweden.

Two additional studies pointed out the need for better surveillance of injuries, and described the use of ambulance attendance reports as a possible i

Concussion rates and head injuries for football players have been on the rise and there is a need for further research in football to increase skills and decrease injuries. Behavioral skills training has been proven to be effective in teaching a wide variety of skills but has yet to be studied in the sports setting. We evaluated behavioral skills training to teach safer tackling techniques among six participants from a local Pop Warner football team. Results show safer tackling techniques increased substantially during practice and generalized to games among all six participants.

Abstract:

Research over the past 30 years suggests that sport can provide a context in which children are subjected to several forms of maltreatment. Various countries, regions, sports and individual organisations have responded to this evidence, causing a proliferation of methods used to safeguard children from harm. However, one approach that is yet to be considered is the safety culture approach. This is despite its potential to address all of the potential risk factors of child maltreatment in sport, and its evidenced ability to tackle a wide range of safety concerns in fields as far-reaching as hea

Abstract:

Collisions between personnel on foot and heavy equipment or materials on a construction site can be characterized as a contact collision. These types of incidents are a common occurrence on a work site. Technology is needed to improve work zone safety by alerting workers that are in danger of collisions pro-actively and in real-time. Developing this technology may assist in collecting previously un-recorded data on "near-misses" (close-calls). An approach is presented in this paper that is based on wireless radio frequency technology to alert workers in real-time when they are in danger.

Epidemiological research has adequately documented the frequency and severity of injury (King & LeBlanc, 2006; Yard & Comstock, 2006).

Abstract:

Thesis (MTech (Public Management))--Cape Technikon, Cape Town, 2006.<br>The Department of Correctional Services provided very little guidance with regard to alternative means of maintaining rehabilitation through sport and recreation. Rehabilitation is the responsibility of the rehabilitative, custodial staff and the community. The judicious, fair and consistent operation of prgrammes is an importnat aid in the hands of the Department of Correctional Services to regulate the behaviour of inmates to ensure a satisfied and orderly prison community. This research is primarily focused on how to en

Abstract:

Head injuries caused by impacts are among the most critical and dangerous types of accidents that can occur while practising sports. Alpine skiing is one of the activities with the highest incidence of head injuries. Over the years, specific regulations have been introduced to protect athletes where possible, but the perception is that the level of protection needed to manage the forces to which they are exposed has yet to be achieved. This thesis project aims to examine video sequences of accidents in alpine ski competitions (Giant Slalom, Super-G, Downhill, Ski Cross) to better understand th

Abstract:

This thesis project concerned passive safety and sustainable assessment of protective polymer-based foam devices, actually installed in Sports Area, and it aimed to investigate regulations, severity of injuries, material absorption properties and testing procedures, in order to propose a new approach. Thus, a focus on international Sports injury statistics it has been done and mostly frequent accident mechanisms, falls and head collisions, highlighted. It has been also possible, through a study on Biomechanical issues, to comprehend evaluation methods of concussion thresholds and brain trauma

Incidents of this kind would be prevented provided that the pupils were literally educated with sufficient safety knowledge and rules of water sports. Based on the Theory of Planned Behavior, this study investigated pupils’ water safety knowledge and their water safety behaviors, including their attitude, subjective norm, perceptive behavioral control as well as other demographic factors, in order to explain

Abstract:

The aim of this dissertation was to develop, demonstrate and evaluate a tendon adaptation model (TAM), which predicts the relative tendon damage incurred by wrist muscles during repetitive wrist motion. This research was divided into three major goals. The first goal was to adapt the muscle model of Loren and Lieber (1995) with an optimization routine in order to predict muscle forces during dynamic motions. The muscle model was combined with the cumulative strain model of Goldstein (1981) and the tendon healing and damage models of Wren, Beaupre and Carter (1998) and Liao and Belkoff (1993) r
