This study was conducted to analyze the frequency and characteristics of football injuries in a rural hospital setting and compare it to the national data. More than 6,000 patients with a sport-related injury presenting to the emergency medicine department at the Marshfield Clinic between June 1, 1988 and June 1, 1994 were collected prospectively. Eight hundred forty-three (14% of total) patients sustained football-related injuries. A chart abstraction form was then used to retrospectively review football injuries documenting types, sites, and mechanism of injury, along with demographic aspects. The peak age sustaining football injuries was 17 years old (17.5%). Most of the football injuries occurred during school activities (73.7%). The most common site injured was the finger (16.5%), followed by the knee (15.7%). Sprains/strains were the most common diagnosis representing 40.2% of injuries overall. The most common mechanism resulting in a football-related injury was as a result of being blocked or tackled (52.7%). Surgery was required on 4.9% of individuals injured while playing football. Most patients (69.7%) were expected to recover from their injury within 14 days. There were more injured football players from our area in the age group 15 to 24 years as compared to the national data available. Diagnosis, site injured, and mechanism of injury from our study were comparable to other national publications. Prospective studies are needed to address the problem of football-related injuries. Such studies would require a multidiscipline team of experts.
本研究旨在分析农村医院环境中足球损伤的频率和特征，并与全国数据进行比较。1988年6月1日至1994年6月1日期间，前瞻性收集了超过6000名因运动相关损伤到马什菲尔德诊所急诊科就诊的患者。其中843名（占总数的14%）患者遭受了与足球相关的损伤。随后使用图表摘要表格对足球损伤进行回顾性分析，记录损伤类型、部位和机制以及人口统计学方面的信息。遭受足球损伤的高峰年龄为17岁（占17.5%）。大多数足球损伤发生在学校活动期间（占73.7%）。最常受伤的部位是手指（占16.5%），其次是膝盖（占15.7%）。扭伤/拉伤是最常见的诊断，占所有损伤的40.2%。导致足球相关损伤的最常见机制是被阻挡或拦截（占52.7%）。4.9%的足球受伤者需要进行手术。大多数患者（占69.7%）预计在14天内从损伤中恢复。与现有全国数据相比，我们地区15至24岁年龄组的受伤足球运动员更多。我们研究中的诊断、受伤部位和损伤机制与其他全国性出版物相当。需要进行前瞻性研究来解决与足球相关的损伤问题。此类研究需要一个多学科专家团队。
