Pediatric ice hockey injuries are common during games, with sprains, strains, and contusions being most frequent. More research is needed to understand specific risk factors and develop effective prevention strategies for young players.

Area of Science:

  • Sports Medicine
  • Pediatric Traumatology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Ice hockey is a popular sport with a high risk of injury among pediatric participants.
  • Understanding injury patterns and causes is crucial for developing effective prevention strategies.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the distribution and determinants of injuries in pediatric ice hockey.
  • To identify potential injury prevention strategies and areas for future research.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive literature search was conducted across 13 electronic databases, Web of Science, and grey literature.
  • Bibliographies of selected studies were reviewed for additional relevant articles.
  • Inclusion and exclusion criteria were used to select studies for review.

Main Results:

  • Comparing studies was challenging due to variations in research design, injury definitions, and populations.
  • Most injuries occurred during games, with sprains/strains and contusions being most common.
  • Upper extremity, head, and lower extremity injuries were prevalent in Minor, High School, and Junior players, respectively. Body checking was the primary injury mechanism.

Conclusions:

  • Specific injury risk factors in pediatric ice hockey remain poorly understood, hindering the development of targeted prevention strategies.
  • Risk management should focus on avoiding foreseeable risks and managing inherent sport risks.
  • Further research is needed to delineate risk factors and inform prevention efforts.
