To describe the incidence rate (IR) and illness burden (IB) at the Pyeongchang 2018 Paralympic Winter Games.
A total of 567 athletes from 49 countries were monitored for 12 days over the Pyeongchang 2018 Games (6804 athlete days). Illness data were obtained daily from teams with (41 teams, 557 athletes) and teams without (8 teams, 10 athletes) their own medical support, through electronic data capturing systems.
There were 87 illnesses reported, with an illness IR of 12.8 illnesses per 1000 athlete days (95% CI 10.2 to 16.0) and IB of 6.8 days lost per 1000 athlete days (95% CI 3.4 to 13.5). The highest IR was reported for Para snowboard (IR of 19.7 [95% CI 12.0 to 32.2]). Illnesses in the respiratory system (IR of 4.1 [95% CI 2.9 to 5.9]; IB of 1.4 [95% CI 0.6 to 3.0]), skin and subcutaneous system (IR of 2.5 [95% CI 1.5 to 4.1]; IB of 0.6 [95% CI 0.1 to 2.9]), and eye and ocular adnexa (IR of 1.6 [95% CI 0.9 to 3.1]; IB of 0.5 [95% CI 0.1 to 3.3]) were the most common.
This is the first study to report both the IR and IB in this setting. There was a high IR of illness in the new sport of Para snowboard. The respiratory system had both the highest IR and IB.
描述 2018 年平昌冬季残奥会的发病率(IR)和疾病负担(IB)。
在平昌 2018 年奥运会期间,对来自 49 个国家的 567 名运动员进行了为期 12 天的监测(6804 名运动员日)。通过电子数据采集系统,从有(41 个团队,557 名运动员)和没有(8 个团队,10 名运动员)自己医疗支持的团队中每天获取疾病数据。
报告了 87 例疾病,发病率为每 1000 名运动员日 12.8 例(95%CI 10.2 至 16.0),疾病负担为每 1000 名运动员日损失 6.8 天(95%CI 3.4 至 13.5)。单板滑雪的发病率最高(IR 为 19.7 [95%CI 12.0 至 32.2])。呼吸系统疾病(IR 为 4.1 [95%CI 2.9 至 5.9];IB 为 1.4 [95%CI 0.6 至 3.0])、皮肤和皮下系统疾病(IR 为 2.5 [95%CI 1.5 至 4.1];IB 为 0.6 [95%CI 0.1 至 2.9])和眼部及眼附属器疾病(IR 为 1.6 [95%CI 0.9 至 3.1];IB 为 0.5 [95%CI 0.1 至 3.3])最为常见。
这是首次在该环境中报告发病率和疾病负担的研究。新的单板滑雪运动发病率很高。呼吸系统的发病率和疾病负担均最高。
