What it says

We summarize in our own words and never reproduce the text. For anything you act on, read the original.

This IOC statement standardizes how injuries and illnesses in sport are recorded and reported, so that surveillance programs and studies use the same definitions and their results can be compared. It updates and unifies eleven earlier sport- or setting-specific consensus statements.

It gives recommendations on defining and classifying health problems, rating their severity, recording athlete exposure, expressing risk and burden, and describing the population and data collection methods, and it adds a reporting checklist, STROBE-SIIS, for sports injury and illness studies. The IOC encourages ongoing surveillance both in and out of competition.
