Abstract

Objective: The purpose of this review was to identify the epidemiology of, and develop standardized injury definitions for, acute injuries among recreational windsurfers.

Methods: A literature search was conducted from the PubMed and Google Scholar databases through February 28, 2023, using relevant keywords with Boolean operators, such as "windsurfing" AND "epidemiology" AND "risk factors." Only peer-reviewed, relevant windsurfing-related injury articles were included.

Results: A wide range of acute injuries, from minor, moderate, severe, to catastrophic, were reported. Injury rates, frequency of anatomical distributions, existing and potential risk factors, the proposed standardization definitions of behaviour types, skill levels, general windsurfing-related injuries, and injury severity classifications and levels for windsurfing epidemiology were identified and tabled.

Conclusions: There is inconsistency in the epidemiological methods and definitions of windsurfing research. The injury rates remain difficult to compare among the identified studies. Future in-depth windsurfing-related injury studies should focus on prospective designs using standardized injury definitions.

与娱乐性帆板运动相关的急性损伤：叙述性综述。第1部分：伤害流行病学和标准化伤害定义的建议。

目的：本综述的目的是确定娱乐性帆板运动员急性损伤的流行病学，并制定标准化损伤定义。方法：截至2023年2月28日，从PubMed和Google Scholar数据库中进行文献检索，使用布尔运算符的相关关键词，如“帆板运动”、“流行病学”和“危险因素”。仅包括同行评审的相关帆板运动相关损伤文章。结果：报告了从轻度、中度、重度到灾难性的各种急性损伤。确定并提交了损伤率、解剖分布频率、现有和潜在风险因素、行为类型、技能水平、一般帆板相关损伤的拟议标准化定义以及帆板流行病学的损伤严重程度分类和水平。结论：帆板运动研究的流行病学方法和定义不一致。损伤率仍然难以在已确定的研究中进行比较。未来与帆板运动相关的损伤研究应侧重于使用标准化损伤定义的前瞻性设计。
