Inversion ankle sprain (IAS) is one of the most common sport injuries on the sports field, with a high risk of secondary injury and chronic condition. Investigating the potential risk factors for first-time and recurrent IAS can assist clinicians in identifying high-risk athletes and providing appropriate injury prevention strategies. This systematic review aims to (1) holistically summarize the research evidence in IAS risk factors according to the dynamic recursive and injury aetiology model, and (2) based on the level of evidence of each research, provide clinicians with injury prevention recommendations. According to this systematic review, most of the literature examined the modifiable intrinsic risk factors, and dynamic postural control instability is one of the prevalent IAS risk factors. Additionally, some research suggested that hip muscle strength may affect ankle kinetics and kinematics, increasing IAS risk. Therefore, we recommend that clinicians design personalized training and rehabilitation regimens that target modifiable intrinsic risk factors, including dynamic postural control and hip muscle strength. Finally, the lack of high-quality research, and the lack of research on extrinsic risk factors, are the knowledge gaps identified in the present study. Future studies are warranted to provide more high-level evidence to assist clinicians in a more comprehensive review of the risk factors for IAS and achieve injury prevention for first-time and recurrent IAS. |
