To provide certified athletic trainers, physicians, and other health care professionals with recommendations on best practices for the prevention of overuse sports injuries in pediatric athletes (aged 6-18 years).
Participation in sports by the pediatric population has grown tremendously over the years. Although the health benefits of participation in competitive and recreational athletic events are numerous, one adverse consequence is sport-related injury. Overuse or repetitive trauma injuries represent approximately 50% of all pediatric sport-related injuries. It is speculated that more than half of these injuries may be preventable with simple approaches.
Recommendations are provided based on current evidence regarding pediatric injury surveillance, identification of risk factors for injury, preparticipation physical examinations, proper supervision and education (coaching and medical), sport alterations, training and conditioning programs, and delayed specialization.

多年来,儿童群体参与体育运动的人数大幅增长。尽管参加竞技和娱乐性体育赛事有诸多健康益处,但不良后果之一是与运动相关的损伤。过度使用或重复性创伤损伤约占所有儿童与运动相关损伤的 50%。据推测,这些损伤中有一半以上可以通过简单的方法预防。
根据有关儿童伤害监测、伤害风险因素识别、参赛前体检、适当监督和教育(教练和医疗)、运动改变、训练和调理计划以及延迟专业化的现有证据,提供建议。
