- Lesões músculo-esqueléticas em jovens desportistas : Estudo da prevalência e dos fatores associadosPublication . Martins, Rosa; Saramago, Tiago; Carvalho, NéliaIntrodução: As lesões músculo-esqueléticas são frequentes e exercem forte impacto na saúde dos jovens desportistas. Objetivo: Identificar a prevalência e fatores associados a lesões músculo-esqueléticas em jovens desportistas. Materiais e Métodos: Estudo quantitativo, transversal, com uma componente analítica, que utilizou uma amostra do tipo não probabilístico por conveniência, constituída por 108 jovens desportistas de dois clubes desportivos das zonas Centro e Norte de Portugal. O instrumento de recolha de dados integrava variáveis de caracterização: sociodemográfica, antropométrica e contextual à prática desportiva. Integrava ainda o Questionário Nórdico Músculo Esquelético para avaliar as lesões. Resultados: Verificou-se uma prevalência de 43,5% de lesões músculo-esqueléticas, localizando se estas nos ombros (34,3%), pernas/joelhos (34,3%), coluna lombar (23,1%), coluna cervical (15,7%), tornozelos/pés (12,0%) e cotovelos (11,1%). Os fatores associados com significância estatística (p<0.005) foram: o habitar em meio rural, possuir índices de massa corporal mais elevados, usar a mochila apenas num ombro, pertencer ao grupo de juvenis, ter histórico de lesões anteriores, e existência de paragens no percurso do desportivo. Discussão: os valores de prevalência de lesões são superiores aos de outros estudos, tendo variáveis multifatoriais como fatores associados que necessitam de um maior enfoque no cuidar especializado da enfermagem. Conclusões: A prevalência das LME nos jovens desportistas é de facto elevada e está associada a alguns fatores sociodemográficos, antropométricos e contextuais à prática desportiva, o que justifica a implementação de programas de prevenção das lesões e promoção da qualidade de vida dos jovens desportistas por parte dos profissionais de saúde.
- Musculoskeletal disorders in adolescents: a study on prevalence and determining factors.Publication . Martins, Rosa; Carvalho, N.; Albuquerque, Carlos; Andrade, Ana; Campos, Sofia; Batista, S.; Dinis, A.Objective: To identify the prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders in adolescents, and to analyze this prevalence relationship with sociodemographic, anthropometric and contextual variables. Methods: An observational, cross-sectional, descriptive/relational study with quantitative approach was conceptualized, involving 632 adolescents with mean age of 13.36 from six school groups from Central and North Portugal. Data collection protocol included questions of sociodemographic, anthropometric and contextual nature, and also the “Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire” to assess musculoskeletal disorders. Results: Data showed that 47.4% of adolescents mentioned musculoskeletal disorders within the last 3 months, located in the shoulders (27.8%), dorsal region (25.3%), thigh/hips (26.1%), neck (23.4%), lumbar region (22.8%), and knees (19.6%). We found that musculoskeletal disorders are more prevalent in female adolescents, and among those who spend longer time watching television per day, and also those who go to school by foot or bicycle. Conclusion: The prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders in adolescents is high and has multicausal origin, turning imperative the implementation of preventive and readapted actions to promote a better musculoskeletal function.
