Injury risk evaluation in sport climbing. Climbing literature suggests climbers get injured mostly in their upper extremities. Climbing injuries can be classified as acute traumatic injuries, atraumatic and chronic overuse injuries. (2011). Objective: To prospectively evaluate the injury risk and injury severity of climbers competing in the climbing World Cup series. The rapid evolution of the sport, including the introduction of more complex climbing walls and movements, has further elevated the risk of injury among athletes. The objective of this article is to bring clear the data about pain, injury and prevention focused in climbing athletes, professionals or non-professionals. Also, most of the injuries occurring are of minor severity and often due to overuse [1, 3, 16]. Knowing these valuable information’s To compare the injury risk in ice climbing to other sports the injury risk per 1000 hours of sport performance is important. , Hennig, F. Injury Risk Evaluation in Sport Climbing. F. The aim of this study was to quantify and rate acute sport climbing injuries. 6%, To further improve preventative measures, more standardized and sport-specific research is needed to report and fully evaluate the injury risk, injury mechanism, the severity of injuries To further improve preventative measures, more standardized and sport-specific research is needed to report and fully evaluate the injury risk, injury mechanism, the severity of International journal of sports medicine. An annual sport-related physical evaluation ensuring fitness to participate can help to reduce risk of injury. To our Rock climbing’s popularity continues to rise, with people of all ages regularly participating in the sport. Rock and ice climbing are widely considered to be 'high-risk' sporting activities that are associated with a high incidence of severe injury and even death, compared with more Data were extracted from included studies and reported descriptively for population, climbing sport type, study design, injury definition and incidence/prevalence, risk Neuhof, A. There were few injuries sustained, An initial PubMed query was performed using the key words 'rock climbing', 'sport climbing', 'mountaineering', 'alpine injuries' and 'climbing injuries'. We prospectively evaluated all attendees of a major German indoor climbing gym in Stuttgart, Germany, with bouldering and lead climbing facilities. Rock climbing’s popularity continues to rise, with people of all ages regularly participating in the sport. , Schöffl, I. Higher climbing intensity, bouldering, reduced grip/finger strength, use of a "crimp" grip, and previous injury were associated with an increased risk of overuse injury. , with fast growth among youth and women. doi:10. Acute sport climbing injuries occurring from 2002 to 2006 were retrospectively assessed with a standardized web Objective To examine risk factors and prevention measures for injury in sport climbing and bouldering, and to assess the methodological quality of existing studies. The aim of this article is to critically review research on the incidence and risk factors associated with Rock climbing’s popularity continues to rise, with people of all ages regularly participating in the sport. Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, 19(6), pp. Climbing literature suggests climbers get injured mostly in their upper This was the first study to accurately record time spent indoor climbing digitally and evaluate the acute injuries prospectively in a large cohort. , (2015) found that age, increasing years of climbing experience, higher climbing grade, high chronic training loads, and participating in Overall, climbing sports had a lower injury incidence and severity score than many popular sports, including basketball, sailing or soccer; indoor climbing ranked the lowest in terms of injuries of all sports assessed. 2011, Vol 32, Num 10, pp 794-800, 7 p ; ref : 36 ref An updated systematic review of the literature is therefore appropriate, to revise and synthesize existing knowledge. Climbing is a physically demanding sport and some pre-existing conditions may increase the risk of injury. Therefore, the aim of this article is to provide a basic outline encompassing To further improve preventative measures, more standardized and sport-specific research is needed to report and fully evaluate the injury risk, injury mechanism, the severity of The rapid evolution of the sport, including the introduction of more complex climbing walls and movements, has further elevated the risk of injury among athletes. Climbing literature suggests climbers get injured mostly in their upper . Gabbet et al. Several disciplines including sport climbing and bouldering have developed, each employing specific movements A previous systematic review by Woollings et al. Schöffl, V; Schöffl, I; Schwarz, U; Hennig, F; Küpper T Injury risk evaluation in water ice climbing 22nd Annual Meeting of the German Society for Travel Medicine (DFR), Aachen, Rock climbing is an increasingly popular sport with >7 million participants in the U. 850-856. (30) found a high injury risk in rugby players (283 An evaluation of injury trends in sport climbing and bouldering over a 4-yr period found superior labral anterior posterior tears and impingement of subacromial structures to be the most common diagnosis (11). Moreover, this systematic analysis should identify more specific risk Acute sport climbing injuries occurring from 2002 to 2006 were retrospectively assessed with a standardized web based questionnaire. S. Methods: In 2012 the International Federation of Sport Climbing While alpine climbing has its inherent dangers, sport, indoor and competition climbing showed a minor injury risk [1 - 15]. The results of injury risk per 1000 hours of participation in ice-climbing was comparable to that of indoor competition climbing and to other outdoor sports (hiking, mountain biking, kayaking). RA Sport Climbing To elucidate patterns of and risk factors for acute traumatic injuries in climbers in need of professional rescue, a retrospective evaluation was performed of the Austrian National Overall, alpine (traditional) climbing has a higher injury risk than sport climbing, especially indoor climbing. International Journal of Sports Medicine, 32 (10), 794–800. Alpine and ice climbing have more objective dangers which can Climbing is a popular wilderness sport among a wide variety of professional athletes and amateur enthusiasts, and many styles are performed across many environments. Attendee’s age, sex, and time Rock and ice climbing are widely considered to be 'high-risk' sporting activities that are associated with a high incidence of severe injury and even death, compared with more Sport climbing injuries presented in emergency departments (1990-2007) showed fractures, sprains and strains accounted for the largest proportion of injuries (29. 0% and 28. Most studies on climbing injury To elucidate patterns of and risk factors for acute traumatic injuries in climbers in need of professional rescue, a retrospective evaluation was performed of the Austrian National Registry of Mountain Accidents regarding Rock climbing injury rates and associated risk factors in a general climbing population. Rock climbing is a popular sporting activity and indoor sport climbing has been accepted for inclusion in the 2020 Olympic Games. BACKGROUND: Female climbers are underrepresented in the literature on rock climbing injuries despite their increasing participation in the sport and higher risk for certain health conditions, especially those related to Indoor vs Outdoor Climbing A significantly higher risk of finger injuries have been found in outdoor bouldering compared to indoor bouldering, whereas a higher risk of fall-related injuries has Background Rock climbing is an increasingly popular sport worldwide, as a recreational activity and a competitive sport. , & Schöffl, V. More than 500 extracted A basic knowledge of the sport and climbing-related injuries is critical in caring for these athletes. The purpose of this study was to compare sex- and To improve preventative injury measures for climbing sports, it is recommended that a standardized, robust and comprehensive sport-specific scoring model should be developed to Rock climbing has become increasingly popular worldwide. 1055/s-0031-1279723 International Journal of Sports Medicine 1 reference stated in Europe PubMed Central PubMed publication ID 21913158 14 September 2017 volume 32 1 reference stated in Europe PubMed Objective: To examine risk factors and prevention measures for injury in sport climbing and bouldering, and to assess the methodological quality of existing studies.
