abstract="BACKGROUND: Injury surveillance in professional sport categorises injuries as either  &quot;new&quot; or &quot;recurrent&quot;. In an attempt to make categorisation more specific, subsequent  injury categorisation models have been developed, but it is not known how often  these models are used. The aim was to assess how recurrent and subsequent injuries  are reported within professional and elite sport. <br><br>METHODS: Online databases were  searched using a search strategy. Studies needed to prospectively report injury  rates within professional or elite sports that have published consensus statements  for injury surveillance. <br><br>RESULTS: A total of 1322 titles and abstract were  identified and screened. One hundred and ninety-nine studies were screened at full  text resulting in 81 eligible studies. Thirty studies did not report recurrent  injuries and were excluded from data extraction. Within the studies that reported  recurrent injuries, 21 reported the number and percentage; 13 reported only the  proportion within all injuries; three reported only the number; five reported the  number, percentage and incidence; and two only reported the incidence. Seven studies  used subsequent injury terminology, with three reporting subsequent injury following  concussion, one using an amended subsequent injury model and three using specific  subsequent injury categorisation models. The majority of subsequent injuries  (ranging from 51 to 80%) were categorised as different and unrelated to the index  injury. The proportion of recurrent injuries (exact same body area and nature  related to index injury) ranged from 5 to 21%. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: Reporting recurrent or  subsequent injuries remains inconsistent, and few studies have utilised subsequent  injury models. There is limited understanding of subsequent injury risk, which may  affect the development of injury prevention strategies. TRIAL REGISTRATION:  CRD42019119264.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
