[Injury profile in school sports. A sports medicine analysis in an annual report on schools].

A current injury profile was constructed on the data of the accident reports (n = 6366) in school sport coming in with the municipality accident insurance association for Schleswig-Holstein. The largest injury frequency occurred at the period from 9 o'clock until 10 o'clock. In this way, the "2nd hour" showed the highest injury risk referring to the lessons. In this case, a significant connection appeared between motivation and injury risk. The upper extremities were affected with a part of about 48% of all injuries most frequently. Within the injury kinds the distortion in 45% of the cases dominated. Cause of the injuries was the ball in 28% of the cases. The most injuries within the ball games resulted at the basketball (17%). By far most injuries of upper extremities occurred during a game phase. In about 80% the cases the injuries were on the fingers identified caused by the ball. The present results can help to analyze causes of accident and discuss measures for the prevention of sport injuries during the school sport.
