On Prevention And Treatment Of Injuries From Sports Of Professional Basketball Players

ObjectiveThrough forward-looking research, statistics have been done on the injury and disease rates of the athletes of National CBA and WCBA games during 2006-2007 and the traumatic etiology has been discussed. This paper has analyzed different methods for treatment and their efficacy, and afforded preventive measures to actively and effectively carry out the prevention work of basketball players' injury at games and reduce the incidence of game injuries, and provide guidance on the CBA and WCBA games. Materials and MethodsChoosing 2006-2007 national CBA and WCBA game players as the research objects, epidemiological investigation of game injuries has been done on total of 367 men and women basket players, among which 211 are male and 156 female. Before the start of league games, research agreements have been prepared with team doctors, whereby the research significance is described, and inspection procedures, diagnostic criteria, and means of data records prepared. The "2006-2007 National Professional Men's and Women's Basketball Game Players Injury Questionnaires" is designed, with treatment strategy after injury and treatment effects recorded. ResultsIn six months of games, 367 men and women players have incurred injuries, totaling384 person times at the average disease rate of 72.75%, 74.41% with men players and 70.51% with women players. There are 85 types of game injuries, with poses injury (Poses fasciitis) at the first place (12.30%), ankle ligament injury the second place (9.42%), and knee meniscus injury at the third place (8.64%). Trauma occurs at the peak age of 23-26, mainly occurred during thematch (53.9%) mainly in the game field (55.8%). Accidental injuries are the main injuries during the match (20.94%), and the main injuries during exercise are those due to excessive training (9.16%). The physical factors of injuries are fatigue (19.90%), and the relationship between injuries and psychological factors is mainly related to impatience (5.50%) mainly in the nature of acute injuries (35.08%). Treatment reached 712 person times, which focused on non-physical treatment, mainly including massage, puncture, electrical puncture, cupping, cooling-heating therapy, traditional Chinese medicine, and partial sealing therapy. Generally, the best effects come from joint treatment of manual puncture+ electrical puncture+TDP. The effect of joint treatment on Psoas fasciitis is obviously better than any single treatment (the effectiveness of single treatment by manual puncture + electrical puncture + TDP is 94.7%,62.5% and p <0.05 respectively). Conclusions1. The first three usual diseases with basketball players are psoas injury at the occurrence rate of 12.30%, followed by ankle ligament injury at the occurrence rate of 9.42%, then by knee meniscus injury at the occurrence rate of 8.64%.2. The basketball game is a strong collectively competitive event, and the places of usual injuries of the players are knee (accounting for 34.55%), waist (accounting for 21.2%) and ankle (accounting for 16.75%).3. One of the means for alleviating the organic fatigue is to strengthening the power exercise on waist, knee and ankle joints, hence reducing the injury in intense match, and make timely adjustment upon exercise.4. The effects from joint treatment of manual puncture+electrical puncture +TDP is better than any single treatment with respect to Psoas fasciitis, while with respect to ankle ligament injury and knee meniscus injury, the effects of such joint treatment is of no obvious difference from that of a single treatment.5. In exercise, supervision shall be strengthened and preventive measures shall be adopted with players, injuries shall be timely treated with reasonablearrangement of exercise strength, hence reducing the injuries from exercises.
