Objetivo: Avaliar a prevalência da sintomatologia músculo-esquelética e de lesões desportivas no atletismo. Metodologia: Estudo descritivo observacional e transversal numa amostra de 164 praticantes de atletismo de todos os níveis/escalões, idades e sexo, utilizando um questionário em linha para recolher informações sobre a prevalência de sintomas músculo-esqueléticos e lesões desportivas associadas. Resultados: A maior parte dos atletas são do sexo feminino, a idade media do amostra era de 30,85 (± 15) anos. A maior parte eram atletas de alta competição (72%) e 80,8% eram corredores. Verificou-se uma prevalência de 76,8 % de lesões musculoesquelética sendo as entorses, fraturas e rupturas musculares as mais comuns, principalmente nos membros inferiores. A maior parte das lesões aconteceram em contexto de treino. A sintomatologia músculo-esquelética dos últimos 12 meses e nos últimos 7 dias afetou principalmente os membros inferiores e a região lombar. A maioria dos atletas procurou apoio de fisioterapeutas para tratamento. Conclusão: Este estudo revelou uma alta prevalência de lesões entre atletas francês (FFA), sendo mais frequentes entre os atletas menos experientes e com frequências de treino de 3 ou 4 vezes/ semana. As lesões afetaram principalmente os membros inferiores e estiveram associadas a fatores como indice de massa corporal e regularidade dos treinos. Os resultados sublinham a importância de estratégias eficazes de prevenção, gestão da carga e acompanhamento profissional personalizado no atletismo.
Objective: To assess the prevalence of musculoskeletal symptoms and sports injuries in athletics. Methodology: Descriptive, observational, cross-sectional study of a sample of 164 track and field athletes of all levels/categories, ages and genders, using an online questionnaire to collect information on the prevalence of musculoskeletal symptoms and associated sports injuries. Results: Most athletes were female, with a mean age of 30.85 (± 15) years. Most were high-performance athletes (72%) and 80.8% were runners. There was a prevalence of 76.8% of musculoskeletal injuries, with sprains, fractures and muscle tears being the most common, mainly in the lower limbs. Most injuries occurred during training. Musculoskeletal symptoms in the last 12 months and in the last 7 days mainly affected the lower limbs and the lumbar region. Most athletes sought support from physiotherapists for treatment. Conclusion: This study revealed a high prevalence of injuries among French athletes (FFA), with injuries being more frequent among less experienced athletes who trained 3 or 4 times a week. The injuries mainly affected the lower limbs and were associated with factors such as body mass index and training regularity. The results highlight the importance of effective prevention strategies, load management, and personalised professional monitoring in athletics.
