Abstract

Background: Regular exercise is beneficial for children and teenagers in terms of physical and mental health, but it is crucial to acknowledge the potential for injuries and the lack of extensive research on the prevalence and consequences of sports-related injuries in this age group. Objectives: This study aims to investigate the occurrence of sports injuries and assess how they may affect students' mental and physical well-being. Methods: The current study was cross-sectional research conducted in Hamedan City from 1401 to 1402. The statistical population of this study consisted of students who participated in team sports. A total of 153 students, with an average age of 14.1 ± 2.8, were selected as the study population. The quality of life was assessed using the SF36 scale, while physical and mental health were evaluated using the PROMIS-2 scales. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS version 21 software and the independent t-test statistical method, with a significance level set at 0.05. Results: The research results have shown that 24.2% of student-athletes in Hamedan City suffer from sports injuries in at least one part of their body. The areas that most commonly affected were the feet and toes (16.2%), ankles (13.5%), and knees (10.8%). Furthermore, the findings from the research indicate that student-athletes with a previous history of sports injuries had a significantly lower average quality of life, physical health, social functioning, and pain interference compared to those who had not experienced such injuries (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Sports injuries are common among student-athletes who participate in team sports, and they can significantly affect both their physical and social well-being. Such injuries can have a detrimental impact on the daily lives and social interactions of adolescent athletes. Therefore, health professionals must be fully aware of these repercussions and make them a key focus when managing sports injuries.
在校学生运动员的运动伤害发生率及其对身心健康的影响
背景:经常锻炼有益于儿童和青少年的身心健康,但必须认识到在这一年龄段的儿童和青少年中存在受伤的可能性,而且缺乏对运动相关伤害的发生率和后果的广泛研究。研究目的本研究旨在调查运动损伤的发生情况,并评估运动损伤可能对学生身心健康造成的影响。研究方法本研究为横断面研究,于 1401 年至 1402 年在哈马丹市进行。本研究的统计人群包括参加团队运动的学生。共选取了 153 名学生作为研究对象,他们的平均年龄为(14.1±2.8)岁。生活质量采用 SF36 量表进行评估,身心健康采用 PROMIS-2 量表进行评估。收集的数据采用 SPSS 21 版软件和独立 t 检验统计方法进行分析,显著性水平设为 0.05。结果研究结果表明,哈马丹市 24.2%的学生运动员至少有一个部位受到运动伤害。最常受伤的部位是脚和脚趾(16.2%)、脚踝(13.5%)和膝盖(10.8%)。此外,研究结果表明,与没有经历过运动损伤的学生运动员相比,有过运动损伤史的学生运动员的平均生活质量、身体健康、社会功能和疼痛干扰明显较低(P < 0.05)。结论运动损伤在参加团队运动的学生运动员中很常见,会严重影响他们的身体健康和社会福利。这些伤害会对青少年运动员的日常生活和社会交往产生不利影响。因此,医护人员必须充分认识到这些影响,并将其作为处理运动损伤的重点。
