11/16/2012 As the nearly 8 million U.S. high school students who
participate in sports every year suit up this season, scientists are
encouraging them to focus on something more valuable than winning their
health. New research from The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center
(OSUWMC) shows fracture and ACL prevention programs are essential in
ensuring injuries dont sideline players.
.
Results from research published in the September edition of The American
Journal of Sports Medicine show the cost of fractures, which account for
more than approximately 10 percent of all high school sports injuries, can
severely impact athletes physically, emotionally and financially,
underscoring the need for fracture prevention programs.
.
The study, supported by funding in part from the Ohio State Center for
Clinical and Translational Science (CCTS) was conducted using data
collected from the National High School Sports-Related Injury Surveillance
System. Researchers explored fracture rates among 20 boys and girls high
school sports from 2008-2009 to 2010-2011 to identify rates of fracture by
sport, fracture pattern and severity, as well as factors associated with
fractures.
.
As we continue to see a rise in U.S. high school students playing sports,
its likely we will see a continued trend of increased injuries among these
same athletes, including fractures, said lead researcher, David Swenson,
an MD/MPH candidate at the Ohio State Colleges of Medicine and Public
Health. Unless we change our approach to the way these athletes are
trained, players and their families will continue to be faced with the
unpleasant reality of fractures which include expensive surgeries,
diagnostic testing and restricted sports participation.
.
While the study looked at both boys and girls sports, fracture rates were
highest in boys sports, including football, ice hockey and lacrosse. Boys
also sustained 79 percent of all fractures reported, with majority taking
place during competition caused by contact with another player.
