Abstract：
Objective To verify the prevalence of musculoskeletal pain in amateur golfers in the State of São Paulo, Brazil. Methods The present is a cross-sectional study performed from September 2019 to March 2020 in golf clubs affiliated to Federação Paulista de Golfe (São Paulo Golf Federation). Federation players were evaluated regarding data on golf practice and sport routine by a main investigator, though an assessment form with multiple-choice questions, to determine sample characteristics and recent pain intensity by the Visual Analogue Scale. Results Approximately 359 amateur golfers were analyzed. The prevalence of pain was of 55.15% (95% confidence interval [95%CI]: 50.0% to 60.3%); the average pain intensity according to the VAS was moderate (mean ± standard deviation: 5.21 ± 2.04; odds ration [OR]: 47,98%). The golfer\'s age range was significantly associated with the presence of pain ( p < 0.05). The highest prevalence estimate of pain was of 68.80% in the age group between 30 and 39 years (OR: 7,33; 95%CI: 2,26 to 23,85; p = 0,0009). The segments most affected by pain were the upper limbs (65.66%), followed by the spine (59.09%) and the lower limbs (32.83%). Conclusion There is a high prevalence rate of pain in Brazilian amateur golfers, especially in younger players in the age group between 30 and 39 years.
摘要：
目的验证圣保罗州业余高尔夫球手肌肉骨骼疼痛的患病率，巴西。方法本研究是2019年9月至2020年3月在FederaçãoPaulistadeGolfe（圣保罗高尔夫联合会）附属的高尔夫俱乐部中进行的一项横断面研究。由主要研究者对联盟运动员进行了高尔夫练习和运动常规数据的评估，虽然是带有多项选择题的评估表，通过视觉模拟量表确定样本特征和近期疼痛强度。结果分析了约359名业余高尔夫球手。疼痛的患病率为55.15%(95%置信区间[95CI]:50.0%至60.3%);根据VAS的平均疼痛强度为中等(平均值±标准偏差:5.21±2.04;比值比[OR]:47,98%)。高尔夫球手的年龄范围与疼痛的存在显著相关(p<0.05)。在30至39岁的年龄组中，疼痛的最高患病率估计为68.80％（OR：7,33;95CI：2,26至23,85;p=0,0009）。受疼痛影响最大的节段是上肢（65.66%），其次是脊柱(59.09%)和下肢(32.83%)。结论巴西业余高尔夫球手疼痛患病率较高,尤其是年龄在30到39岁之间的年轻球员。
