Twelve hundred wheelchair athletes were surveyed to determine commonly experienced athletic injuries, sports participation and training patterns associated with injuries. Soft tissue trauma, blisters, lacerations, decubiti and joint disorders were the most commonly reported injuries of the 128 respondents. Over 70 per cent of all reported injuries occurred during wheelchair track, road racing and basketball. Common mechanisms of injury were also identified. A significantly higher number of reported injuries were associated with increased sports participation (p less than 001), with the 21-30 year-old age group (p less than .01), and with a high number of training hours per week (p less than .05). There was no significant relationship between number of reported injuries and disability type, National Wheelchair Athletic Association classification, or sex. Decubitus ulcers and temperature regulation disorders were identified as particular risks for the spinal cord injury population. Educating the athlete and coach in means to prevent injury is necessary to promote optimal performance and safe participation.
对1200名轮椅运动员进行了调查，以确定常见的运动损伤、与损伤相关的运动参与和训练模式。在128名受访者中，软组织创伤、水泡、撕裂伤、褥疮和关节疾病是最常报告的损伤。所有报告的损伤中，超过70%发生在轮椅径赛、公路赛和篮球运动中。还确定了常见的损伤机制。报告的损伤数量显著增加与运动参与增加（p小于0.01）、21至30岁年龄组（p小于0.01）以及每周训练时间较多（p小于0.05）有关。报告的损伤数量与残疾类型、国家轮椅运动员协会分类或性别之间没有显著关系。褥疮溃疡和体温调节障碍被确定为脊髓损伤人群的特殊风险。对运动员和教练进行预防损伤的教育对于促进最佳表现和安全参与是必要的。
