Risk of head injury associated with distinct head impact events in elite women's hockey

Head injuries are a major health concern for sport participants as 90% of emergency department visits for sport-related brain injuries are concussion related. 1 Recently, reports have shown a higher incidence of sport-related concussion in female athletes compared to males. 3 Few studies have descri...
