Objetivo: analisar a prevalência, a natureza e os fatores associados às lesões músculo-esqueléticas em praticantes de desportos aquáticos (natação, natação sincronizada e polo aquático), em contexto de piscina, nas duas últimas épocas competitivas. Metodologia: 59 atletas com prática regular de uma das três modalidades aquáticas. Foram recolhidos dados sobre, com um questionário online, características demográficas, prática desportiva, tipo, mecanismo e localização da lesão, bem como consequências e medidas adotadas após a lesão. Resultados: Foram identificadas 48 lesões, de media de idade entre 18 e 26 anos com maior prevalência no polo aquático (95,8%), seguido da natação sincronizada (92,8%) e da natação (57,1%). A sobrecarga foi o mecanismo mais comum (76%), e o ombro a articulação mais afetada (36,5%). A tendinopatia foi o diagnóstico mais frequente (38,8%), principalmente nas modalidades sem contacto. O polo aquático apresentou maior diversidade lesional e média de afastamento mais elevada (106 dias). Embora 67% dos atletas tenham feito reabilitação, apenas 23% alteraram a técnica e 29% não adotaram nenhuma medida preventiva. Conclusão: Os resultados reforçam a necessidade de estratégias preventivas específicas e do acompanhamento fisioterapêutico contínuo, adaptado à exigência de cada modalidade. A reincidência e a cronicidade das lesões destacam a importância da educação, da correção técnica e do reforço muscular direcionado.
Objective: investigate the prevalence, nature, and associated factors of musculoskeletal injuries in aquatic sports (swimming, synchronized swimming, and water polo), in pool settings, during the past two competitive seasons. Methods: 59 athletes with regular practice of one of the aquatic disciplines. Data on demographics, sports practice, injury type, mechanism, location, consequences, and post-injury measures were collected with an online questionnaire. Results: A total of 48 injuries were reported, average age between 18 and 26 with water polo showing the highest prevalence (95.8%), followed by synchronized swimming (92.8%) and swimming (57.1%). Overuse was the most frequent mechanism (76%), and the shoulder was the most affected joint (36.5%). Tendinopathy was the most frequent diagnosis (38.8%), especially in non-contact sports. Water polo presented the highest injury diversity and mean time off (106 days). Although 67% of athletes underwent rehabilitation, only 23% changed their technique, and 29% adopted no preventive strategies. Conclusion: The findings highlight the need for sport-specific prevention strategies and continuous physiotherapy monitoring. The recurrence and chronicity of injuries underline the importance of athlete education, technical correction, and targeted strength training.
