Injury and illness surveillance, and epidemiological studies, are fundamental elements of concerted efforts to protect the health of the athlete. To encourage consistency in the definitions and methodology used, and to enable data across studies to be compared, research groups have published 11 sport-specific or setting-specific consensus statements on sports injury (and, eventually, illness) epidemiology to date. Our objective was to further strengthen consistency in data collection, injury definitions and research reporting through an updated set of recommendations for sports injury and illness studies, including a new Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) checklist extension. The IOC invited a working group of international experts to review relevant literature and provide recommendations. The procedure included an open online survey, several stages of text drafting and consultation by working groups and a 3-day consensus meeting in October 2019. This statement includes recommendations for data collection and research reporting covering key components: defining and classifying health problems; severity of health problems; capturing and reporting athlete exposure; expressing risk; burden of health problems; study population characteristics and data collection methods. Based on these, we also developed a new reporting guideline as a STROBE Extension—the STROBE Sports Injury and Illness Surveillance (STROBE-SIIS). The IOC encourages ongoing in- and out-of-competition surveillance programmes and studies to describe injury and illness trends and patterns, understand their causes and develop measures to protect the health of the athlete. Implementation of the methods outlined in this statement will advance consistency in data collection and research reporting.

国际奥委会共识声明：2020年运动损伤和疾病流行病学数据记录和报告方法（包括运动损伤和疾病监测STROBE扩展（STROBE-SIIS））

伤害和疾病监测以及流行病学研究是共同努力保护运动员健康的基本要素。为了鼓励所使用的定义和方法的一致性，并使不同研究的数据能够进行比较，研究小组迄今为止已发表了 11 份针对运动损伤（以及最终的疾病）流行病学的特定运动或特定环境的共识声明。我们的目标是通过一套更新的运动损伤和疾病研究建议，包括新的加强流行病学观察研究报告 (STROBE) 清单扩展，进一步加强数据收集、损伤定义和研究报告的一致性。国际奥委会邀请了一个国际专家工作组审查相关文献并提出建议。该程序包括公开的在线调查、工作组的几个阶段的文本起草和磋商以及 2019 年 10 月举行的为期 3 天的共识会议。该声明包括关于数据收集和研究报告的建议，涵盖关键组成部分：定义和分类健康问题；健康问题的严重程度；捕捉并报告运动员的暴露情况；表达风险；健康问题的负担；研究人口特征和数据收集方法。在此基础上，我们还开发了新的报告指南作为 STROBE 扩展——STROBE 运动损伤和疾病监测 (STROBE-SIIS)。国际奥委会鼓励持续开展赛内和赛外监测计划和研究，以描述伤病趋势和模式，了解其原因并制定保护运动员健康的措施。实施本声明中概述的方法将提高数据收集和研究报告的一致性。
