Introdução: o esqui é um desporto de inverno muito popular, mas pela sua complexidade e exigência, pode expor os esquiadores a um elevado risco de ocorrência quedas e/ou de lesões. Objetivos: avaliar a epidemiologia das lesões músculo-esqueléticas durante a prática de esqui recreativo na estância francesa VAL D'ALLOS. Metodologia: estudo observacional transversal epidemiológico. A amostra foi constituída por 120 esquiadores, maioritariamente praticantes de esqui alpino, 50 do sexo masculino e 70 do sexo feminino, com idades superiores a 18 anos. Toda a informação sociodemográfica, biológica, de treino e lesiva foi recolhida através de um questionário on-line. Resultados: 66 lesões traumáticas foram reportadas neste estudo. O local anatómico com maior ocorrência lesiva foi o joelho (43,9%), seguido pelo ombro (15,2%) e punho (12,1%), sendo estas lesões as mais incapacitantes em ambos os sexos, de 8 a 28 dias (major) ou superior a 28 dias (graves). O tipo de lesões mais frequentes foram as lesões ligamentares (29,4%) e as fraturas (30,3%), com severidade major, tendo-se verificado uma forte associação entre o grau de severidade e os participantes de ambos os sexos (p<0,001). Conclusão: na totalidade da amostra, a prevalência de lesões músculo-esqueléticas nos esquiadores foi de 55%, maioritariamente de severidade major, localizadas no joelho e ombro, sendo do tipo de lesões ligamentares e/ou fraturas. A frequência lesiva esteve relacionada com o tipo de esqui praticado.
Introduction: Skiing is a very popular winter sport, but due to its complexity and demands, it can expose skiers to a high risk of falls and/or injuries. Objectives: to assess the epidemiology of musculoskeletal injuries during recreational skiing in the French resort of VAL D'ALLOS. Methodology: epidemiological cross-sectional observational study. The sample consisted of 120 skiers, mostly alpine skiers, 50 male and 70 female, aged over 18. All the sociodemographic, biological, training and injury information was collected using an online questionnaire. Results: 66 traumatic injuries were reported in this study. The anatomical site with the highest occurrence of injuries was the knee (43.9%), followed by the shoulder (15.2%) and wrist (12.1%), and these injuries were the most disabling in both sexes, lasting from 8 to 28 days (major) or more than 28 days (severe). The most common type of injuries were ligament injuries (29.4%) and fractures (30.3%), with major severity, and there was a strong association between the degree of severity and the participants of both sexes (p<0.001). Conclusion: in the total sample, the prevalence of musculoskeletal injuries in skiers was 55 per cent, mostly of major severity, in the knee and shoulder, and of the type of ligament injuries and/or fractures. The frequency of injuries was related to the type of skiing practiced.
