Abstract

Purpose. Physiotherapists are trained to prevent, assess, and rehabilitate all kinds of injuries including sports injury. The goal of the physical therapist should be making sure that the athlete is in optimal shape to perform, with a minimal risk for developing an injury. This study aims to assess the physiotherapists’ awareness, implementation, and views of sports injury prevention programs (IPPs) from an international perspective. Materials and methods. A self-administered questionnaire was developed and distributed to physiotherapists worldwide through World Physiotherapy member organizations. The study targeted physiotherapists at an international level. The study included 484 participants, of whom 44.4% were male and 55.6% were female physiotherapists. Results. A total of 287 (59.3%) of the participants were aware of the current sports IPPs, 177 (36.6%) were implementing sports IPPs in their current practice. Participants who implemented the sports IPPs reported a positive opinion about the program efficacy, with a score of 7.3 ± 2.11 out of 10.  Conclusions. Globally, physiotherapists have average awareness and low implementation levels of IPPs. Physiotherapists showed a positive score regarding the effectiveness of IPPS, especially the KIPP and the iSPRINT.
全球物理治疗师对当前运动损伤预防项目的认识和使用
目的。物理治疗师接受过预防、评估和康复各种损伤的培训,包括运动损伤。物理治疗师的目标应该是确保运动员在最佳状态下进行比赛,将受伤的风险降到最低。本研究旨在从国际视角评估物理治疗师对运动损伤预防计划(ipp)的认知、实施和观点。材料和方法。一份自我管理的调查问卷通过世界物理治疗成员组织分发给世界各地的物理治疗师。这项研究的目标是国际水平的物理治疗师。这项研究包括484名参与者,其中44.4%为男性,55.6%为女性物理治疗师。结果。共有287人(59.3%)了解现行体育ipp, 177人(36.6%)正在实施体育ipp。实施体育ipp的参与者报告了对项目效果的积极看法,得分为7.3±2.11分(满分10分)。结论。在全球范围内,物理治疗师对ipp的认识一般,实施水平较低。物理治疗师对IPPS,尤其是KIPP和iSPRINT的有效性给予了积极的评价。
