Abstract

Aim: To assess the rate of self-reported concussion in midwestern skiers and snowboarders.

Patients: Recreational skiers and snowboarders between the ages of 14 and 69 years during a single winter ski season (2020-2021) at a ski area in Wisconsin, USA.

Methods: Survey study.

Results: Among this survey population (n = 161), 9.32 and 19.25% reported one or more diagnosed concussion and suspected concussion respectively as a result of a skiing- or snowboarding-related incident. Skiers and snowboarders that self-identified as advanced, those who utilized terrain park features, and those that participated in freestyle competition had significantly higher self-reported rates of concussion.

Conclusion: Self-reported concussion history indicates a concussion prevalence that is higher than expected based on previous studies. Participants reported significantly more suspected concussions than diagnosed concussions, indicating a possible issue with underreporting in this population.

中西部滑雪者和单板滑雪者自我报告的脑震荡史。

目的:评估中西部滑雪和单板滑雪运动员自我报告脑震荡的发生率。患者:年龄在14岁至69岁之间的休闲滑雪者和单板滑雪者，在一个冬季滑雪季节(2020-2021)在美国威斯康星州的一个滑雪场。方法:调查研究。结果:在本次调查人群(n = 161)中，9.32%和19.25%分别报告了一次或多次因滑雪或单板滑雪相关事件而确诊的脑震荡和疑似脑震荡。那些自认为先进的滑雪者和单板滑雪者，那些利用地形公园特征的人，以及那些参加自由式比赛的人都有更高的自我报告的脑震荡率。结论:自我报告的脑震荡病史表明脑震荡的患病率高于以往研究的预期。参与者报告的疑似脑震荡明显多于确诊脑震荡，这表明在这一人群中可能存在漏报的问题。
