In a prospective study over the two years 1981-1982, there were 1186 separate sporting injuries treated at a Sports Injury Clinic. Just over 75% of patients were aged between 16 and 25 years old, while 80% were male. Football, Rugby, Running, Squash and Rowing contributed over 70% of these injuries. The commonest injuries were to the lower limb and lumbar region. In 43% of knee injuries there was strain of the collateral ligaments, while another 26% had patello-femoral pain. Short distance running was associated with an increase in shin splints, tibial stress fractures and hamstring injuries. Long distance running was associated with an increase in ankle and foot injuries. Sports Injury Clinics can benefit the injured athlete and there appears to be a need for their development in major hospitals.
在1981年至1982年的两年期前瞻性研究中，一家运动损伤诊所共治疗了1186例不同的运动损伤病例。略多于75%的患者年龄在16至25岁之间，而80%为男性。足球、橄榄球、跑步、壁球和赛艇导致的损伤占这些损伤的70%以上。最常见的损伤部位是下肢和腰部。在43%的膝部损伤中，侧副韧带拉伤，另有26%患有髌股疼痛。短跑与胫腓骨疲劳性骨膜炎、胫骨应力性骨折和腘绳肌损伤的增加有关。长跑与脚踝和足部损伤的增加有关。运动损伤诊所可以使受伤运动员受益，大型医院似乎有必要发展此类诊所。
