UNASSIGNED: Cohen, JL, Cade, WH, Harrah, TC, Costello II, JP, and Kaplan, LD. The surgical management of NCAA Division 1 college football injuries post COVID-19: A single institution retrospective review. J Strength Cond Res 38(5): 906-911, 2024-The unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on college football operations, including athletes\' training regimens. As a result of these changes, concern for increased injury susceptibility post COVID-19 regulations has become a point of discussion. The current study sought to evaluate the incidence of surgical injury among NCAA Division 1 college football players at the authors\' institution during the first full season after start of the COVID-19 pandemic compared with previous years. Retrospective chart review was performed for all players who sustained injuries requiring surgery while a member of the NCAA Division 1 football program during the 2009-2021 seasons. A p -value of ≤0.05 was used to determine significance. A total of 23 surgical injuries occurred in 22 players during the 2021 season compared with 121 in 118 players in the 12 previous seasons combined ( p = 0.0178; RR = 1.47). There was a significant increase in shoulder injuries ( n = 13 vs. n = 31; p = <0.0001; RR = 3.05) and specifically a significant increase in labral tears ( n = 10 vs. n = 30; p = 0.0003; RR = 2.74). No difference was seen in knee injuries ( n = 10 vs. n = 77; p = 0.27; RR = 1.35) and specifically no difference in anterior cruciate ligament injuries ( n = 3 vs. n = 31; p = 0.77; RR = 1.17). This phenomenon is multifactorial in nature, but alterations to players\' training and preparations because of the COVID-19 pandemic likely resulted in suboptimal conditioning, leading to the increased incidence of surgical injuries emphasizing the importance of adequate strength training and conditioning.

■科恩,JL,凯德,WH,Harrah,TC,科斯特洛二世,JP,还有卡普兰,LD。COVID-19后NCAA1级大学橄榄球损伤的手术治疗:单机构回顾性研究。JStrengthCondResXX(X):000-000,2023年-史无前例的新冠肺炎大流行对大学橄榄球运营产生了重大影响,包括运动员训练方案。由于这些变化,对COVID-19法规后伤害易感性增加的担忧已经成为讨论的焦点。目前的研究试图评估与前几年相比,在COVID-19大流行开始后的第一个完整赛季中,作者机构的NCAA1级大学橄榄球运动员的手术损伤发生率。在2009-2021赛季期间,对所有受伤需要手术的球员进行了回顾性图表审查。使用≤0.05的p值确定显著性。在2021赛季中,共有22名球员发生了23次手术伤害,而在前12个赛季中,118名球员中发生了121次手术伤害(p=0.0178;RR=1.47)。肩伤明显增加(n=13vs.n=31;p=<0.0001;RR=3.05),尤其是唇眼泪显着增加(n=10vs.n=30;p=0.0003;RR=2.74)。膝盖受伤没有差异(n=10vs.n=77;p=0.27;RR=1.35),特别是前交叉韧带损伤没有差异(n=3vs.n=31;p=0.77;RR=1.17)。这种现象本质上是多因素的,但由于COVID-19大流行而对球员训练和准备的改变可能导致条件欠佳,导致手术损伤的发生率增加,强调足够的力量训练和条件的重要性。
