Abstract

In Brazil, surfing has gained popularity in recent decades, driven by beautiful beaches, good wave conditions and the spirit of adventure that permeates Brazilian culture, but also increasing the risk of injuries. During surfing, the surfer spends most of the time lying prone on the board while paddling, placing heavy demands on the musculoskeletal system in the cervical and lumbar spine, as well as in the shoulder region, which are important points for complaints of chronic injuries among surfers. The objective of the present study was to update musculoskeletal assessment of the upper quarter, related to physical examination and functional tests that can be applied to surfers. This is an update study based on an integrative review through a bibliographical survey in which national and international journals indexed in the scientific databases Scielo and PubMed were evaluated, developed and analyzed by a group of experts in the area of surf medicine and health composed of physical educator, physiotherapists and sports doctors. This guideline study compiled important information regarding the prevalence of upper quarter musculoskeletal injuries in surfers, guiding the surfer's outpatient assessment, considering the specificity of the sport and biomechanical gesture involved. Level of Evidence III; Expert opinion.

冲浪者的身体评估：卫生专业人员指南。第1部分上四分之一

在巴西，冲浪运动近几十年来越来越受欢迎，这得益于美丽的海滩、良好的海浪条件和巴西文化中弥漫的冒险精神，但也增加了受伤的风险。在冲浪过程中，冲浪者在冲浪时大部分时间都是俯卧在板上，对颈椎和腰椎的肌肉骨骼系统以及肩部的肌肉骨骼系统提出了很高的要求，这是冲浪者抱怨慢性损伤的重要部位。本研究的目的是更新上肢四分之一的肌肉骨骼评估，与可应用于冲浪者的身体检查和功能测试有关。这是一项基于综合文献调查的最新研究，该调查由一组冲浪医学和健康领域的专家组成，包括体育教育者、物理治疗师和运动医生，他们对Scielo和PubMed科学数据库中索引的国家和国际期刊进行了评估、开发和分析。这项指导性研究收集了有关冲浪者上肢肌肉骨骼损伤患病率的重要信息，指导冲浪者的门诊评估，考虑到运动和生物力学手势的特殊性。证据等级III；专家的意见。
