Brain motion, deformation, and potential injury during soccer heading
This paper addresses the problem of what is happening physically inside the skull during head-ball contact. Mathematical models based upon Newton’s laws of motion and numerical methods are used to create animations of brain motion and deformation inside the skull. Initially a 1 cm gap filled with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) separates the brain from the rigid skull in adults and older children. Wh...
متن کاملEffects of Soccer Heading on Brain Structure and Function
Soccer is the most popular sport in the world, with more than 265 million players worldwide, including professional and amateur ones. Soccer is unique in comparison to other sports, as it is the only sport in which participants purposely use their head to hit the ball. Heading is considered as an offensive or defensive move whereby the player's unprotected head is used to deliberately impact th...
متن کاملBrain motion and deformation during closed head injury in the presence of cerebrospinal fluid
This paper presents a new analysis of the physics of closed head injury following brief, intense acceleration of the head. It focuses upon the buoyancy of the brain in cerebrospinal fluid, which protects against damage, the propagation of strain waves through the brain substance, which causes damage, and the concentration of strain in critical anatomic regions, which magnifies damage. Numerical...
متن کاملNo neurochemical evidence for brain injury caused by heading in soccer.
BACKGROUND The possible injurious effect to the brain of heading in soccer is a matter of discussion. OBJECTIVE To determine whether standardised headings in soccer are associated with increased levels of biochemical markers for neuronal injury in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and serum. METHODS 23 male amateur soccer players took part in a heading training session involving heading a ball kick...
متن کاملMay Heading in Soccer Result in Traumatic Brain Injury? A Review of Literature
Background Globally, soccer is the most popular team sport, unifying many fans all around the world. The epidemiological studies so far have confirmed that head playing and hitting the ball with head may cause minor head injuries, which exert their effects in a cumulative way. Methods Literature search for this review was conducted and data about traumatic brain injury collected from various ...
