Résumé
There is a high incidence of hand and wrist injuries in athletes participating in collegiate sports, but there is little information published characterizing them. To characterize hand and wrist injuries in collegiate athletes using a large national database. Descriptive epidemiology study. This retrospective cross-sectional analysis was designed using data from the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Injury Surveillance Program database to identify hand and wrist injuries (exclusive of any radial or ulnar fractures) in male and female collegiate athletes participating in NCAA Division I, II, and III sports from 2004 to 2015. Descriptive analyses were performed on stratified data to examine the associations between these injuries and sport, event type, and sex. Men's ice hockey (8.25 per 10,000 athlete-exposures [AEs]) and women's ice hockey (8.21 per 10,000 AEs) had the highest rate of hand and wrist injuries in all exposures. In every sport except women's gymnastics ( Hand and wrist injuries were common among collegiate athletes
