Badminton injuries, particularly to the lower extremities like Achilles tendon ruptures and ankle sprains, frequently affect recreational players. Many players experience lingering symptoms and prolonged inability to return to the sport post-injury.

Area of Science:

  • Sports Medicine
  • Traumatology
  • Epidemiology of Sports Injuries

Background:

  • Badminton is a popular sport with a significant injury burden.
  • Understanding the epidemiology of badminton-related injuries is crucial for prevention and management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the incidence, nature, and outcomes of badminton injuries requiring emergency care.
  • To identify common injury types and affected patient demographics in badminton.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of emergency department data from 1990-1994.
  • Inclusion of injury type, severity (AIS grades 1-2), affected body part, and patient demographics.
  • Follow-up assessment of persistent symptoms and return to sport.

Main Results:

  • Badminton accounted for 1.2% of emergency sports injuries.
  • Recreational players and beginners comprised 90.7% of injured individuals.
  • Lower extremity injuries were most common (92.3%), with Achilles tendon ruptures (34.6%) and ankle injuries (29.5%) predominating.
  • 52.6% reported persistent symptoms, and 39.5% could not return to play at follow-up.

Conclusions:

  • Badminton poses a considerable risk for lower extremity injuries, especially among recreational players.
  • A significant proportion of badminton injuries lead to long-term symptoms and functional limitations.
  • Emphasizes the need for effective treatment and rehabilitation protocols for acute badminton injuries.
