Sport-related concussion (SRC) is a serious injury in youth team sports, including handball. While research on the prevention of SRC has made progress over the past 5 years, prevention strategies are lacking in handball. The aim was to explore and develop strategies focusing on information, rules and training that may prevent concussion in youth handball by incorporating knowledge from experts and end users. Using a participatory methodology, experts (physiotherapy, biomechanics: n=3) and end users (players, coaches, referees, coach educators: n=7) contributed their experience and knowledge in a 2-hour online workshop...

PURPOSE: To compare the functional and patient-reported outcome measures after autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) and arthroscopic debridement (AD) in symptomatic, isolated cartilage injuries larger than 2 cm2 in patients aged 18 to 50 years. METHODS: Twenty-eight patients were included and randomized to ACI (n = 15) or AD (n = 13) and followed for 2 years. The primary outcome was the change in the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) Quality of Life (QoL) subscale...

BACKGROUND: At the completion of formal rehabilitation after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, functional capacity is only restored in a small proportion of affected individuals. Therefore, the end of formal rehabilitation is not the end of functional rehabilitation. OBJECTIVE: To compare adherence to and effectiveness of a late-stage rehabilitation programme with usual care after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. METHODS: This prospective, double-blind, multicentre, parallel group, randomised controlled trial, included people aged 18 to 35 years after formal rehabilitation completion (mean [SD] 241 [92] days post-reconstruction)...

CONTEXT: Chronic ankle instability (CAI) is prevalent amongst individuals who sustain a lateral ankle sprain (LAS) injury. The persistent of the characteristic long-standing clinical symptoms of CAI maybe attributable to the lack of adoption of evidence-informed clinical guidelines.

CONTEXT: Osteitis pubis (OP), which occurs as a result of excessive use of the symphysis pubis and parasymphysis bones, is more common in long-distance runners and kicking athletes, especially football players. Due to the poor results of commonly used treatments for OP, there is a need for investigation of more effective treatments, such as ozone therapy. Ozone therapy is used to treat a variety of diseases, including musculoskeletal conditions. CASE PRESENTATION: A 30-year-old amateur soccer player diagnosed with OP received conservative treatment with traditional physiotherapy and analgesic medications...

A 14-year-old female presented to the sports physiotherapy with a diagnosis of Osgood-Schlatter's disease (OSD), a condition particularly prevalent in adolescents engaged in sports with repetitive knee motions, such as volleyball. This ailment commonly manifests at the tibia, directly beneath the patella, eliciting discomfort and inflammation. The chronic overuse injuries involve repetitive activities inducing fatigue in specific anatomical structures. Adequate recovery mechanisms allow for tissue adaptation, mitigating the risk of injury...

A kettlebell is a weight made of cast iron shaped like a ball with a handle. Commercial kettlebells are offered in capacities that vary from 3 pounds to 100 pounds (or more). The kettlebell has a variety of possible clinical applications, including dynamic flexibility exercises and power training. Players' efficacy during the game can be improved by developing their strongest potential prior to exercising and efficiently converting that strength to power as the event draws near. Strengthening has been recommended as an effective means to avoid injuries, build muscle strength, and enhance one's health in relation to performance in the game...

Chronic non-specific neck pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal conditions affecting the work and lifestyle of those suffering from it. Physiotherapy interventions, such as strength training and stretching, have positively influenced neck pain. Patient adherence to home-based exercises is a growing concern that could be easily improved through telerehabilitation exercise programmes. This can also be a cost-effective, time-efficient and patient-suitable service. Therefore, this study aims to establish the effectiveness of telerehabilitation exercise intervention by measuring patient adherence, pain score, disability index, cervical range of motion (CROM) and cervical muscle endurance...

Medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction is a surgical treatment, primarily indicated for patients grappling with recurrent patellar instability stemming from traumatic injury or underlying anatomical anomalies. This abstract aims to elucidate the indispensable role of physiotherapy in the post-operative rehabilitation trajectory for individuals subjected to MPFL reconstruction. Physiotherapy emerges as a linchpin in securing a triumphant outcome, fostering the healing of patellar stability, augmentation of range of motion (ROM), and bolstering muscular strength while concurrently mitigating potential complications...

The preschool period is characterised by the improvement in motor skills. One of the developmental tasks in children is the ability to jump. Jumping plays an important role in the development of leg strength and balance. It is the gateway to more complex movements. In the physiotherapy clinic, we see a lot of difficulties in jumping performance in 5-7-year-old children. The aim of this study is to present the jumping ability, assessed by the Motor Proficiency Test (MOT) and the G-sensor examination of the vertical countermovement jump (CMJ) and countermovement jump with arms thrust (CMJAT) parameters...

The correction of postural weaknesses through the better positioning of the pelvis is an important approach in sports therapy and physiotherapy. The pelvic position in the sagittal plane is largely dependent on the muscular balance of the ventral and dorsal muscle groups. The aim of this exploratory study was to examine whether healthy persons use similar muscular activation patterns to correct their pelvic position or whether there are different motor strategies. The following muscles were recorded in 41 persons using surface electromyography (EMG): M...

Diffuse axonal injury (DAI) is a severe and frequently life-altering form of traumatic brain injury that is brought on by forces of rapid acceleration as well as deceleration impacting the brain. DAI primarily stems from mechanical forces that lead to the widespread disruption of axons throughout the brain. Unlike focal injuries that affect a specific brain region, DAI manifests as multifocal axonal damage, often impairing vital neural connections. This injury occurs due to shear and tensile forces during traumatic events, such as car accidents, falls, and sports-related incidents...

Hand injuries from surfing tend to be severe and require medical attention. Follow-up of a surfing injury is difficult because many patients are visiting and go home after treatment. We report a case of a surfing hand injury sustained abroad, which was treated upon the patient's return, allowing for follow-up. The mechanism of injury was traction and torsion from the surfboard leash while surfing. The patient was initially treated for nailbed injury but presented later back home after persistent pain, for which an unstable distal phalanx fracture in their right ring finger was found by x-ray...

PURPOSE: Acute Achilles tendon tears in young active individuals are often treated surgically with prolonged rehabilitation, with the leg initially immobilized in plantar flexion in serial non-weight bearing casts and gradually progressing to full weight bearing. This study aimed to evaluate the safety of an early functional unsupervised rehabilitation protocol. METHODS: The medical records of 25 patients treated with open repair were available for follow-up. In 10 patients, an early functional unsupervised rehabilitation protocol was used with a removable cast, active range of motion exercises of the ankle from the first postoperative day, and full weight bearing in a walking boot with the foot plantigrade after the second week...
