Adherence to an Injury Prevention Warm-Up Program in Children’s Soccer : A Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial
2021
This study examined the impact of high adherence to a neuromuscular training (NMT) warm-up on the risk of lower extremity (LE) injuries in children’s soccer. Twenty U11–U14 youth clubs (n = 92 teams, 1409 players) were randomized into intervention (n = 44 teams) and control (n = 48 teams) groups. The intervention group was advised to perform an NMT warm-up 2 to 3 times a week for 20 weeks. Team adherence, injuries, and exposure were registered throughout the follow-up. Primary outcomes were the incidence of soccer-related acute LE injuries and the prevalence of overuse LE injuries. Intervention teams conducted mean 1.7 (SD 1.0) NMT warm-ups weekly through follow-up. The seasonal trend for a…
Valore del segno del doppio legamento crociato posteriore nell'imaging con RM del ginocchio
2008
Questo studio è stato condotto in maniera retrospettiva su 2436 esami di risonanza magnetica (RM) di ginocchio eseguiti nel periodo compreso tra Gennaio 2006 e Ottobre 2007. Gli esami sono stati analizzati usando come unico criterio diagnostico per la definizione del segno del doppio legamento crociato posteriore (LCP) la visualizzazione diretta di un frammento in gola intercondiloidea parallelo ed inferiore al LCP. Tale segno è stato riscontrato in 56 casi, di cui 50 successivamente sottoposti ad artroscopia che ha confermato la diagnosi in tutti i casi. Tale segno è risultato pertanto altamente sensibile e specifico nella diagnosi di rotture meniscali a manico di secchio This study was ca…
Five insights from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019
2020
The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019 provides a rules-based synthesis of the available evidence on levels and trends in health outcomes, a diverse set of risk factors, and health system responses. GBD 2019 covered 204 countries and territories, as well as first administrative level disaggregations for 22 countries, from 1990 to 2019. Because GBD is highly standardised and comprehensive, spanning both fatal and non-fatal outcomes, and uses a mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive list of hierarchical disease and injury causes, the study provides a powerful basis for detailed and broad insights on global health trends and emerging challenges. GBD …
Selkäydinvammaisten henkilöiden toimintakyvyn itsearviointi Suomessa
2021
Selkäydinvamma vaikuttaa laajasti arjessa toimimiseen sekä muihin elämän eri osa-alueisiin. Selkäydinvammaisten henkilöiden toimintakykyä ei ole tutkittu Suomessa laajasti. Selkäydinvammaisille kohdennettujen toimintakykymittareiden valikoima on suppea ja niiden pätevyys vaihtelee. Selkäydinvammaisen henkilön toimintakyvyn itsearviointimittari (The Spinal Cord Independence Measure- Self Report: SCIM-SR) on kehitetty tarkastelemaan juuri selkäydinvammaisten henkilöiden toimintakykyä selkäydinvammaan liittyvissä asioissa. Mittari painottuu fyysisen toimintakyvyn ulottuvuuksiin. SCIM-SR-mittari pisteyttää toimintakykyä siten, että 100 pistettä on maksimi ja samalla paras toimintakyky. Kolmen a…
Wiedza personelu pielęgniarskiego na temat ran przewlekłych i metod ich leczenia
2022
Cel pracy: Ustalenie poziomu wiedzy personelu pielęgniarskiego na temat ran przewlekłych i metod ich leczenia, jak również czynników determinujących poziom tej wiedzy. Materiał i metody: Zbadano 145 członków personelu pielęgniarskiego od listopada 2020 r. do stycznia 2021 r. Zastosowano metodę sondażu diagnostycznego techniką ankietowania. Narzędziem badawczym był autorski kwestionariusz ankiety. Wyniki: Grupa 78 (53,79%) uczestników ankiety miała wiedzę niedostateczną, 59 (40,69%) – dostateczną, 4 (2,76%) ankietowanych miało wiedzę dobrą, a pozostałych 4 (2,76%) – bardzo dobrą. Zaledwie 30 (20,69%) badanych znało klasyfikację służącą do oceny rany odleżynowej. Prawidłową kolejność układu f…
Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic Shoulder and Elbow score kyselylomakkeen adaptaatio ja validointi Suomeen
2021
Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic (KJOC) Shoulder and Elbow score -kyselylomake on Yhdysvalloissa kehitetty yli olan urheilijoiden olka- ja kyynärpään itsearvioidun toimintakyvyn työväline. Yli olan urheilulla tarkoitetaan lajeja, joissa yläraajaan kohdistuu toistuvaa kuormitusta hartiatasossa tai sen yläpuolella. Yläraajan vammat ovat kyseisissä lajeissa yleisiä ja luotettavat terveyden seurannan mittarit ovat merkittävä osa urheilijoiden hyvinvoinnin arviointia. KJOC-kysely sisältää esitieto-osion sekä kymmenen yläraajan toiminta- ja suorituskykyä tiedustelevaa kysymystä. Alkuperäinen englanninkielinen KJOC-kysely on osoittautunut päteväksi, toistettavaksi ja muutosherkäksi mittariksi, mutta…

Self-reported versus diagnosed stress fractures in Norwegian female elite athletes
2009
The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of self- reported versus diagnosed stress fractures in female elite athletes and non-athletic controls. A random sample of Norwegian elite athletes from the national teams, aged 13-39 years (n = 186) and a random sample of non-athletic controls (n = 145) in the same age group participated in the study. The athletes represented a junior- or senior team, or a recruiting squad for one of these teams, in one of 46 different sports/events. A higher percentage of athletes self-reported stress fractures (14.0%) compared to those diagnosed with stress fractures (8.1%) (p0.001). Six controls self- reported stress fractures, but none of them were …
Avoiding lumbar segmental arteries injury in oblique lateral interbody fusion procedure
2020
Lumbar interbody fusion is performed to treat several spinal disorders and involves the insertion of a structural graft into an intervertebral disk space to promote bony arthrodesis. Although the posterior approach to the lumbar spine was long the most frequently adopted surgical strategy to perform fusion, anterior approaches, first introduced in 1906, have recently blossomed. Patient expectations and increasing demands for shorter hospital stay and early recovery have led to more innovative surgical techniques to reduce iatrogenic injury and postoperative morbidity. Depending on the level to be treated, several approaches have been developed, each dealing with peculiar anatomic obstacles:…
