INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this study was to characterize the type, nature and frequency of injuries sustained by chiropractic students during their undergraduate training.
METHODS
Chiropractic students in their second, third and fourth year of study at a chiropractic college were asked to complete a questionnaire that chronicled and described the occurrence of any side effects they may have sustained at the hands of their peers during technique class. Students were also asked to record their anthropomorphic characteristic.
RESULTS
Of 450 questionnaires distributed, 292 were completed and returned to the authors. Of the 292 respondents, 127 reported to have experienced an injury, although the total number of injuries was 161. The most common site of injury was the lumbopelvic region. Students reported that it was during their second year of study that they experienced the highest number of injuries. Symptoms occurred the same day as the event in 85% of cases. The most common characteristic of symptoms reported was pain, followed by local stiffness, headache, dizziness, fatigue, diffuse stiffness and cramps. Two thirds of students described the extent of their injuries from 'light' to 'a fair bit'. Three quarters of injuries resolved within the first 72 hours of the event. No treatment was sought by 89 (55%) of the respondents. More than half of students reported that their activities of daily living were either 'not' or 'somewhat' affected. There were three reports of long-term complaints. No statistically significant differences were found between the group of students reporting to be injured compared to those students not injured with respect to their age, gender, weight or height.
CONCLUSION
Chiropractic students experience side effects during their undergraduate training that are very similar to those experienced by patients under clinical care.
引言
本研究的目的是描述整脊专业学生在本科培训期间所受伤害的类型、性质和频率。
方法
一所整脊学院二、三、四年级的整脊专业学生被要求填写一份问卷，记录并描述他们在手法课上可能受到的来自同伴的任何副作用。学生们还被要求记录他们的人体测量特征。
结果
在分发的450份问卷中，292份被填写并返还给作者。在292名受访者中，127人报告曾受过伤，尽管受伤总数为161次。最常见的受伤部位是腰骶部。学生们报告说，他们在二年级时受伤次数最多。85%的病例中症状在受伤当天出现。报告的症状最常见的特征是疼痛，其次是局部僵硬、头痛、头晕、疲劳、全身僵硬和抽筋。三分之二的学生将他们的受伤程度描述为“轻度”到“相当严重”。四分之三的受伤在事件发生后的头72小时内痊愈。89名（55%）受访者未寻求治疗。超过一半的学生报告说他们的日常生活活动“没有”或“有点”受到影响。有三例长期不适的报告。在报告受伤的学生组和未受伤的学生组之间，在年龄、性别、体重或身高方面未发现统计学上的显著差异。
结论
整脊专业学生在本科培训期间经历的副作用与临床护理患者经历的副作用非常相似。
