Overview

Scoping review assesses incidence and injury types in female athletes, indicating higher risks for specific injuries.

Key Points

  • Female athletes experience higher risks of specific injuries like ACL injuries and concussions, despite similar overall incidence rates.
  • Among eighteen studies analyzed, common injury types identified include bone stress injuries and nontraumatic shoulder instability in female athletes.
  • The scoping review followed PRISMA ScR guidelines, analyzing data from multiple databases and screening for relevant literature.
  • Preventive strategies for female athletes must address underrepresentation in research and incorporate both biological and social gender factors.
