Abstrakt: Context: The definition of an "overuse injury" had some ambiguity until recent publications . It is unknown whether the improved definition of "overuse injury" has been applied to epidemiology studies that examine high school-aged athletes. This population may be predisposed to overuse injuries due to several factors. Clinical Question : Is there more consistency in how the term "overuse injury" is being used, and has the rate of overuse injuries in high school-aged athletes epidemiology studies changed since Roos and Marshall's 2014 systematic review on overuse injury definitions? Clinical Bottom Line: Since Roos and Marshall's systematic review. more studies are recognizing "overuse injuries as needing a specific mechanism of injury: however, several studies failed to differentiate "overuse injuries" from "noncontact injuries." The rate of overuse injuries does not appear to have changed significantly. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
