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.
