Concussion rates are commonly reported in high school and National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA) sports. Given that participation in collegiate recreation is on the rise, institutions should examine concussion rates within their recreational programs. We, therefore, retrospectively examined a recreational department's injury reports establishing concussion rates across ( n = 16) club and ( n = 10) intramural sports at a public university in the southeastern United States from 2016 to 2019. One hundred and thirty-five concussions (club n = 56; intramural n = 79) were identified and constituted 12.4% of documented injuries ( n = 1,088). The intramural concussion rate was 0.57 per 1,000 athletic exposures (AEs) and AE was greatest in outdoor soccer (0.99 per 1,000 AE). Therefore, our data suggests an increased incidence of concussions in intramurals compared to published rates in NCAA and high school sports. Collegiate recreational departments should consider these concussion rates when formulating risk management strategies.

大学休闲运动员脑震荡损伤的流行病学

高中和美国大学体育协会 (NCAA) 体育运动中常见脑震荡发生率。鉴于参与大学娱乐活动的人数不断增加，各机构应检查其娱乐项目中的脑震荡发生率。因此，我们回顾性地检查了娱乐部门的伤害报告，确定了 2016 年至 2019 年美国东南部一所公立大学 (n = 16) 俱乐部和 (n = 10) 校内运动中的脑震荡发生率。 135 例脑震荡（俱乐部 n = 56；壁内 n = 79）已被识别，占记录伤害的 12.4%（n = 1,088）。壁内脑震荡发生率为每 1,000 次运动暴露 (AE) 0.57 例，其中户外足球中的 AE 最高（每 1,000 次 AE 0.99 例）。因此，我们的数据表明，与 NCAA 和高中体育运动中公布的发生率相比，校内的脑震荡发生率有所增加。大学娱乐部门在制定风险管理策略时应考虑这些脑震荡发生率。
