Item Open Access Agreement Statement from the 1st international rodeo research and clinical care conference(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2005-05) Butterwick, Dale J.; Brandenburg, M.A.; Andrews, D.M.; Brett, K.; Bugg, B.H.; Carlyle, K.J.; Freeman, T.R. 3rd; Hiemstra, L.; Lafave, Mark R.; Laird, J.; Lun, V.; Meyer, M.C.; Miller, C.; Mohtadi, N.; Nebergall R.; Temes, R.T.; Teochi, L.F.; Wiley, P.; Meeuwisse, Willem H.; Concussion in Rodeo GroupItem Open Access An analysis of injury definitions and risk of subsequent injury in Cirque du Soleil performers(2009) Hamilton, Gavin; Meeuwisse, Willem H.This study explored how different definitions of injury (i.e., medical attention versus time loss) affect 1) injury rates, 2) consequences of injury, 3) risk factor analysis and 4) subsequent injury risk. Cirque du Soleil performers (n=1281) were followed for a total of 812,008 performances over a period of 49 months (2004 to 2008). Cirque therapists used an electronic database as their charting procedure for injuries and treatments. Results showed that the choice of injury definition affected estimates of the injury rate, the consequence of injury and the assessment of statistical significance for risk factors. Using survival analysis techniques and conditioning on the individual, the risk of an index injury was similar to the risk of a subsequent injury (HR=0.97, 95% CI; 0.88 to 1.08), no matter the injury definition. These results suggest that individuals have a fixed ratio for subsequent injuries and an injury may not increase the risk of subsequent injuries.Item Open Access Bull Riding Injuries in Professional Rodeo(Vendome Group, LLC, 2003-06) Butterwick, Dale J.; Meeuwisse, Willem H.Item Open Access Comparison of the risk of ankle sprain for braced, taped and unsupported ankles in intercollegiate basketball(1999) Sparling, Jacqueline Lee; Meeuwisse, Willem H.Item Open Access Concussion prevention in ice hockey(2010) Benson, Brian Walter; Meeuwisse, Willem H.Item Open Access Development, implementation and validation of the Canadian Intercollegiate Sport Injury Registry(1994) Meeuwisse, Willem H.; Love, Edgar J.Item Open Access Distribution of Injuries in Men's Canada West University Football(Sage Publications, 2000) Meeuwisse, Willem H.; Hagel, Brent E.; Mohtadi, Nicholas G. H.; Butterwick, Dale J.; Fick, Gordon H.Item Open Access Effect of Experience on Rodeo Injury(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2002) Butterwick, Dale J.; Meeuwisse, Willem H.Item Open Access Epidemiologic Analysis of Injury in Five Years of Canadian Professional Rodeo(American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine, 2002) Butterwick, Dale J.; Hagel, Brent; Nelson, Dexter S.; LeFave, Mark R.; Meeuwisse, Willem H.Longitudinal studies of rodeo injuries are rare. We prospectively investigated injuries in professional rodeo in Canada over a 5-year period. Our specific interests included injury incidence density in specific rodeo events, risk factors such as past injury, and the incidence of head injury. Of 323 professional rodeos from 1995 through 1999, 63 rodeos provided a convenience sample. These rodeos were selected because the Canadian Professional Rodeo Sport Medicine Team was in attendance at these events, thus providing both competitor health care and data collection. Four hundred fifty-one injuries were reported during 30,564 competitor-exposures. The greatest injury frequency and injury incidence density were in the rough stock events (bull riding, bareback riding, and saddle bronc). Bull riding accounted for the greatest injury frequency (141) and incidence density (32.2 injuries per 1000 competitor-exposures). Bull riding had a relative injury risk of 1.32 when compared with bareback riding; bareback riding had a relative injury risk of 1.39 when compared with saddle bronc riding. Concussions accounted for 8.6% of all reported injuries. Concussions and other head injuries (65) were second only to knee injuries (76) in frequency of injury to specific body parts. This concussion frequency is higher than has previously been reported.Item Open Access Exercise counselling by family physicians in Canada(1999) Sandilands, Maureen Frances Kennedy; Meeuwisse, Willem H.Item Open Access Injury rates and profiles in female ice hockey(1999) Schick, Deanna Martine; Meeuwisse, Willem H.Item Open Access Risk factor analysis of skiing and snowboarding injuries in southern Alberta youth(1998) Hagel, Brent E.; Meeuwisse, Willem H.Item Open Access Risk factors for groin and abdominal strain injury in the national hockey league(1999) Emery, Carolyn A.; Meeuwisse, Willem H.Item Open Access Rupture of Latissimus Dorsi in an Athlete(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2003) Butterwick, Dale J.; Mohtadi, Nicholas G.; Meeuwisse, Willem H.; Frizzell, J.
