Abstract

The present investigation reports 138 consecutive patients injuried in sports, who needed treatment as in-patients in a one year period. More injuries were sustained in soccer than in other sports. The lower extremity was the site of most injuries, fractures and dislocations being the most common type of injury. At follow-up 50 of the patients complained of discomfort. The average stay in hospital after a sports injury requiring hospital care was 6 days. In 52 of the patients the duration of sports incapacity was at least six months and in seven per cent the sports incapacity after the sustained injury was permanent. Verf.-Referat
