Introdução: Estima-se que entre 22.0% a 50.0% das lesões em contexto desportivo
correspondem a lesões no tornozelo. A crescente popularidade dos desportos universitários
acarreta um aumento da incidência e prevalência de lesões musculoesqueléticas, em especial
a entorse no tornozelo. Existem vários fatores que se pensa terem influência na predisposição
de lesões, alguns modificáveis e outros não. Pela compreensão e identificação de fatores de
risco, será possível melhorar o conhecimento sobre esta patologia na população em estudo e
desenvolver no futuro estratégias de prevenção mais eficazes.
Objetivos: Este estudo foi desenvolvido com o objetivo de caracterizar as entorses no tornozelo
em praticantes de desporto universitário da Universidade da Beira Interior (UBI) e de perceber
quais os fatores associados a estas.
Metodologia: Foi realizado um estudo em alunos da UBI inscritos no desporto universitário no
período de 2015-2019, através da aplicação um questionário online voluntário enviado pelo
Sector de Desporto e Cultura dos Serviços de Ação Social da UBI. O questionário era composto
por questões sociodemográficas, de prática desportiva, clínicas, de diagnóstico, de terapêutica
e de prognóstico. Aplicaram-se como critérios de exclusão: ter patologias congénitas ou
metabólicas e tomar medicação crónica. Após aplicados estes critérios obteve-se uma amostra
de 173 atletas (19.9% da população). A análise estatística dos dados foi feita com o auxílio do
software Statistical Package for Social Sciences® (SPSS®) versão 25.0.
Resultados: A maioria dos praticantes de desporto universitário da UBI é do sexo masculino
(57.8%), tem menos de 24 anos (82.9%) e tem IMC normal (83.8%). Os hábitos tabágicos e
alcoólicos não estão presentes em respetivamente 78% e 37.6%. Os desportos mais praticados
são o Futsal (16.8%), o Basquetebol (13.9%) e o Futebol (12.7%). 59.5% dos treinos duram uma
a duas horas, e ocorrem duas vezes por semana (43.4%). Estima-se ocorrência de entorses em
61.8% dos praticantes da UBI. Ao nível de significância de 5%, conclui-se que a ocorrência de
entorse é independente de todos os fatores de risco, com exceção da modalidade desportiva,
onde praticar Futebol (p=0.004) e Basquetebol (p=0.007) está relacionado com maior
probabilidade de lesão. Realça-se também que é mais provável ter uma lesão em contexto de
treino (p=0.000), recorrer a um fisioterapeuta para tratamento (p=0.000), fazer radiografia
para diagnóstico (p=0.000), usar pé elástico como imobilização (p=0.000) e regressar à prática
da modalidade (p=0.000) e nesta sem limitações (p=0.000).
Conclusão: Existe uma elevada prevalência de entorses no tornozelo em atletas da UBI, sendo
necessário implementar medidas de apoio, de prevenção e seguimento dos atletas.
Para que se verifique uma diminuição da ocorrência destas lesões especialmente as associadas
à prática de Futebol e Basquetebol é essencial o desenvolvimento de exercícios específicos nos
treinos através da valorização do aquecimento aquando da prática da modalidade. No futuro
poderá ser interessante fazer uma investigação mais alargada comparando mais universidades
portuguesas e integrando mais fatores de risco.
Introduction: Ankle injuries account for 22.0 to 50.0% of sports injuries. The increasing popularity of university sports brings increasing in incidence and prevalence of musculoskeletal injuries, especially ankle sprains. There are several factors that might influence the predisposition to injuries, some modifiable and some not. By understanding and identifying risk factors, it will be possible to improve knowledge about this pathology in the population of this study and develop more effective prevention strategies in the future. Objectives: This study was developed to characterize ankle sprains in the university sports practitioners of University of Beira Interior (UBI) and understand the factors related to them. Methodology: The study was carried out on UBI athletes that participate in university sports in the 2015-2019 period, applying an online voluntary questionnaire sent by the Sport and Culture Sector of the Social Action Services of UBI. The questionnaire was composed by questions of sociodemographic factors, sport practice itself, clinic, diagnosis, therapeutic and prognosis. Exclusion criteria were applied: having congenital or metabolic pathologies and taking chronic medication. After applying the criteria, a sample of 173 athletes (19.9%) was obtained. The statistical analysis of data was performed with the aid of Statistical Package for Social Sciences® (SPSS®) software version 25.0. Results: Most of the university sports practitioners are male (57.9%), are less than 24 years old (82.9%) and have normal BMI (83.8%). Smoking or drinking habits are absent in respectively 78% and 37.6%. The most practiced sports are Indoor Football (16.8%), Basketball (13.9%) and Football (12.7%). 59.5% of training takes one or two hours, twice a week (43.4%). It is estimated that ankle sprains occurred in 61.8% of the practitioners of UBI. At the level of significance of 5% is concluded that the occurrence of sprain is independent of all risk factors, with the exception of the modality, where playing Football (p=0.004) and Basketball (p=0.007) is related to higher probability of injury. It was emphasized that is more likely to have an injury in the context of training, consult a physiotherapist for treatment, make radiography for diagnosis, use elastic feet as immobilization and return to the practice of the sport and in it without limitations. Conclusion: There is high prevalence of ankle sprains in UBI athletes, and it’s necessary to implement support, prevention and follow-up measures for athletes. To reduce the occurrence of injuries especially in Football and Basketball it’s essential the development of specific training exercises, as well as warming up whenever if you are going to practice the sport. In the future it may be interesting conduct a broader investigation comparing more Portuguese universities and integrating more risk factors.
