Participation in athletic activities among children and adolescents is on the rise in the United States. Approximately 35 million children ages 5 to 18 play organized sports each year. High school athletes suffer approximately 2 million injuries per year, resulting in 500,000 doctor visits and 30,000 hospitalizations. In addition, early specialization in sports has led to increased incidence of overuse injury in adolescents. Head injuries among adolescents are also on the rise. Primary care providers are called on to complete preparticipation evaluations and to see adolescents with acute injuries. The goal of this article is to discuss these issues common to adolescent athletes.
在美国，儿童和青少年参与体育活动的人数正在上升。每年约有3500万5至18岁的儿童参加有组织的体育活动。高中运动员每年约遭受200万次损伤，导致50万人次就医和3万次住院治疗。此外，青少年过早进行专项体育训练导致过度使用损伤的发生率增加。青少年头部损伤的情况也在上升。初级保健提供者需要进行运动前评估，并诊治急性损伤的青少年。本文的目的是讨论青少年运动员常见的这些问题。
