Ski injuries were studied over a six-year period at a ski area in Northern Vermont. While the injury was being treated we gathered injury, anthropometric and ability data. The binding was tested using ASTM techniques. We found all injuries to decrease but there was a bigger reduction in lower leg injuries. There was a marked decrease of the mean release torque towards the ASTM recommendations of the lower extremity group, which was attributed to be the reason for the decrease in injury rate. The medial collateral ligament injury continues to be the most prevalent of the lower extremity injuries. Injury mechanisms of this injury were explored. More work to understand how to protect the knee needs to be done.
在佛蒙特州北部的一个滑雪区，对六年期间的滑雪损伤进行了研究。在治疗损伤的同时，我们收集了损伤、人体测量和能力数据。使用美国材料与试验协会（ASTM）的技术对固定装置进行了测试。我们发现所有损伤都有所减少，但小腿损伤的减少幅度更大。下肢组的平均释放扭矩明显降低，接近ASTM的建议值，这被认为是损伤率下降的原因。内侧副韧带损伤仍然是下肢损伤中最常见的。对这种损伤的损伤机制进行了探讨。需要做更多工作来了解如何保护膝盖。
