Table 1.
Predefined checklist for independent evaluation of situational and kinematic patterns.
Modified from Klein et al. [17]
| Situational pattern |
|---|
| Date of match |
| Match minute of injury / Match minute for injured player (if substitute) |
| Playing position of injured player |
| Field location (football pitch divided into 14 zones) |
| Ball possession |
| Injured player / Own team / Opponent team / Unclear / Nobody |
| Direction of movement |
| Forward / Lateral / Backward / Not horizontal |
| Pitch contact |
| Both legs / Single leg / No contact |
| Main injury mechanism |
| Contact / Indirect contact / Non-contact with distance to another player < 2 m / Non-contact with distance to another player > 2 m |
| Kinematics |
|---|
| Trunk position |
| Flexion / Neutral / Extension |
| Hip joint movement (sagittal) |
| Flexion to extension / None / Extension to flexion |
| Hip joint angle at assumed injury frame (sagittal) |
| < 45° / 45–90° / > 90° |
| Knee joint movement (sagittal) |
| Flexion to extension / None / Extension to flexion |
| Knee joint angle at assumed injury frame (sagittal) |
| < 45° / 45–90° / > 90° |
| Ankle joint movement (sagittal) |
| Plantarflexion to dorsiflexion/none/dorsiflexion to plantarflexion |
| Foot position in sagittal plane at assumed injury frame |
| Plantarflexion / Neutral / Dorsiflexion |
| Foot position in coronal plane at assumed injury frame |
| Supination / Neutral / Pronation |
| Foot position in axial plane at assumed injury frame |
| Abducted / Neutral / Adducted |
