研究设计：描述性自我报告调查.Objectives：To assess activity level，medical history，and prevalence and intensity of shoulder and upper extremity pain experienced during functional activities in female athletes who compete in wheelchairs.Background：以前的研究已经证明了上肢软组织疾病在轮椅运动员中的高发病率。这些研究都没有专门专注于女性运动员谁使用wheelchairs.Methods和Measures：46名女性轮椅篮球运动员完成了一项匿名调查，其中包括人口统计学数据，病史数据，和轮椅用户的肩痛指数（WUSPI）。WUSPI是一个有效的和可靠的自我报告的措施得分从0到150，分数越高，表明在功能activity.Results的肩部疼痛的强度越大：受访者的平均年龄为33.2（+/- 9.1）年，平均12.5（+/- 10.2）年的轮椅使用。他们的残疾包括39%的脊髓损伤，28%的各种下肢肌肉骨骼和神经肌肉残疾，13%的脊髓灰质炎后瘫痪，11%的脊柱裂，和9%的截肢。只有14%的受试者在使用轮椅之前报告肩部疼痛。相比之下，72%的受试者报告自轮椅使用以来肩痛，52%报告当前肩痛。总体而言，受试者的平均+/- SD性能校正总WUSPI评分为15.6 +/- 20.5，评分范围为0 - 150分，0分代表无疼痛。最高强度的肩痛报告在家务劳动，推进坡道或倾斜，解除开销，而sleeping.Conclusions：肩关节和上肢疼痛是一个非常常见的问题，超过90%的受试者在这项研究中。使用轮椅的运动员的疼痛和慢性残疾的预防应该由教练、运动员和医疗保健专业人员来解决。
Study Design: Descriptive self-report survey.Objectives: To assess activity level, medical history, and the prevalence and intensity of shoulder and upper extremity pain experienced during functional activities in female athletes who compete in wheelchairs.Background: Previous studies have documented a high incidence of upper extremity soft tissue disorders in athletes who compete in wheelchairs. None of these studies have specifically focused on female athletes who use wheelchairs.Methods and Measures: Forty-six female wheelchair basketball players completed an anonymous survey that included demographic data, medical history data, and the Wheelchair User's Shoulder Pain Index (WUSPI). The WUSPI is a valid and reliable self-report measure scored from 0 to 150, with higher scores indicating a greater intensity of shoulder pain during functional activities.Results: The average age of the respondents was 33.2 (+/- 9.1) years, with an average of 12.5 (+/- 10.2) years of wheelchair use. Their disabilities included 39% spinal cord injury, 28% various lower extremity musculoskeletal and neuromuscular disabilities, 13% postpolio paralysis, 11% spina bifida, and 9% amputations. Only 14% of the subjects reported shoulder pain prior to wheelchair use. In contrast, 72% of the subjects reported shoulder pain since wheelchair use, with 52% reporting current shoulder pain. Overall, the subjects scored an average +/- SD performance-corrected total WUSPI score of 15.6 +/- 20.5 on a scale of 0 to 150 points, with 0 representing no pain. The highest intensity of shoulder pain was reported during household chores, propulsion on ramps or inclines, lifting overhead, and while sleeping.Conclusions: Shoulder and upper extremity pain was a very common problem reported by over 90% of the subjects in this study. Prevention of pain and chronic disability in athletes who use wheelchairs should be addressed by coaches, players, and health care professionals.
