SIRS stands for Sport Injuries Reporting System. It is designed to track and report sports-related injuries.
You can participate in the study by clicking on the 'Participate in the Study' link and following the instructions.
Yes, you can withdraw from the study at any time by clicking on the 'Withdraw from the Study' link.
With SIRS, you can track and report sports-related injuries, view injury reports, and participate in our study related to sports injuries. You can also join as a coach, set up your team, invite your players, and finally overview their wellbeing
You cannot use SIRS to diagnose injuries or provide medical treatment. It is a reporting and tracking tool, not a medical service.
Any sports-related injury that affects your ability to perform or requires medical attention should be reported in SIRS.
Minor injuries (or injuries occurring outside your sport practice) that do not affect your performance and do not require medical attention typically do not need to be reported in SIRS.
Reporting an injury in SIRS typically takes around 5-10 minutes, depending on the complexity of the injury and the details you need to provide.
You need to know the details of the injury, including the type, location, but of course you'll be guided through the reporting process with intuitive information. Detailed information helps in accurate reporting.
Unfortunately is that not yet possible but we will work on that issue to make it the most comfortable for you !
Yes, you can edit your injury reports after submission to ensure all information is accurate and up-to-date.
For a complete documentation you need to know the following:
a. Date of the sport or training session
b. Whether it was a training or competition
c. The sport or training you did within your session
d. The duration of your practice in hours and minutes
e. You can optionally add notes if you like to
Documenting your sport and training within SIRS provides you a structured overview of your current practice. Regarding the study, this will enable setting the injuries of athletes in relation to their sport and training.
This function is rather intended to document your training instead of planning it ahead. It is possible though to enter sport and training you will do in the future but you would have to edit or delete these if you do not execute them as planned.
