Filter by:This research project can contribute to a deeper understanding of injury patterns among professional female ice-hockey players allowed to body check. An understanding of common injury types and mechanisms aids the clinician in diagnosis and management. This information can guide preventative strategies in the areas of education, coaching, rule enforcement, rule modifications, equipment improvement, and sportsmanship. Today, ice hockey is a sport associated with many severe injuries that not only causes suffering and lower quality of life for the athlete, but also costs society a lot of money. Reducing the number and severity of sport-related injuries is therefore of importance. Knowledge of the injury epidemiology of women's hockey could also contribute to better preventive training programs and other injury preventive actions in the sport. Currently, only a minority of all sports medicine research is made on female study participants (26). This research project has the possibility to gain more knowledge about the female athlete, not only applicable for elite hockey-players, but also for female athletes in different disciplines and in youth teams. Knowledge of factors associated with injury could also contribute to better injury preventive actions and highlight subgroups in extra need of future preventive interventions.
Aim Given the increasing occurrence of cases of cardiorespiratory arrest on soccer fields around the world, it seems pertinent to find out the degree of training and the attitude shown by the players and coaches themselves. The objective was to measure the knowledge and attitude of soccer professionals before and after a training intervention. Method After an exhaustive bibliographic review, a series of questions have been analyzed and selected, with which an ad hoc questionnaire has been prepared. This questionnaire has been completed by soccer players from the Spanish first division, male and female teams and their coaches. Once the data was collected, a training workshop was carried out to improve both the attitude and knowledge in relation to cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
The purpose of this study is to describe the variation characteristics and factors of the heart rate variability during long-distance running.
Recent developments in football have seen the sudden death of young football player due to aortic rupture hence reinforcing the controversy of football as a field with substantial risk for sudden cardiac arrest and death. Moreover, there is an argument that aortic dilatation and the subsequent event of thoracic aortic aneurysm may be an occupational disease due to the nature of some vocations (i.e., military and security personnel, blue collar workers, weightlifters, athletes etc.). Of particular importance, there is some evidence that elite athletic training is associated with small but significantly larger aortic root diameter. The purpose of this study was to investigate aortic root adaptation to physical workload and to determine if aortic root's and left ventricle sizes are contingent upon the physical workload
