We studied 39 recreational rock climbers to determine the incidence and pattern of injuries sustained in the sport at their level. Eleven climbers (26%), who climbed beyond the sport level, had sustained a major injury from a fall. Thirty-five climbers (89%) sustained at least one significant injury. Fifty percent of the injuries involved the hand or wrist. Only seven climbers (19%) had evidence of a digital pulley injury (climber's finger). Four climbers (11%) had evidence of a carpal tunnel syndrome. Twenty climbers (50%) had tendinitis in an upper extremity on physical examination.
我们研究了39名业余攀岩者，以确定在他们这个水平的这项运动中受伤的发生率和模式。11名攀岩水平超出业余范畴的攀岩者（26%）因坠落而遭受了重伤。35名攀岩者（89%）至少遭受了一次严重损伤。50%的损伤涉及手或腕部。只有7名攀岩者（19%）有指腱鞘损伤（攀岩者手指）的迹象。4名攀岩者（11%）有腕管综合征的迹象。20名攀岩者（50%）在体格检查时上肢有肌腱炎。
