Submitted by: MMA Observer
Posted On 08/17/2006
The Journal of Sports and Medicine conducted a research article entitled, “Incidence of Injury in Professional Mixed Martial Arts Competitions� that was published in July of 2006. Professors and doctors from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Department of Emergency Medicine in Baltimore, Maryland, contributed to the study along with researchers from the University. They include, Gregory H. Bledsoe MD, MPH, Edbert B. Hsu MD, MPH, Jurek George Grabowski MPH, Justin D. Brill BA, and Guohua Li MD, DrPH. The study focused on a total of 171 mma matches involving 220 different fighters from the September 2001 to December 2004 in the state of Nevada. These are the highlighted key points from the article:
- Mixed-martial-arts (mma) has changed since the first mma matches in the United States and now has increased safety regulations and sanctioning.
- MMA competitions have an overall high rate of injury.
- There have been no mma deaths in the United States.
- The knockout (KO) rate in mma appears to be lower than the KO rate of boxing matches.
- MMA must continue to be supervised by the properly trained medical professionals and referees to ensure fighter safety in the future.

Punt 1, 3 en 4 zijn m.i. positief voor de MMA-sport. Punt 2 is een wat minder positief punt en punt 5 een aanbeveling. Dus overall een positief bericht lijkt mij.
