Study Variables
Data for each event was collected in Excel (Microsoft, Washington, USA) by age (further stratified into age groups: 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, and ≥ 60 years of age), injury type (concussion, contusion/abrasion, dental injury, fracture, and laceration), and injury location (head, eyeball/globe, face [eyelid, eye area and nose], neck, mouth [lips, tongue, and teeth], and ear). Injuries confined to a single anatomical location (i.e. concussion and dental injury) were excluded from corresponding analyses.
