A retrospective study will be performed in speed skaters. 100 speed skaters will be recruited. Data of all injury along a whole season will be collected. Patients' information, including age, number of years playing, skill level and injured body part, will be analysed
Speed skating is a sport in which there´s a lack of epidemiological studies. In line with the well-established model of sports injury prevention research proffered by van Mechelen, the first stage in this process is establishing the extent of the problem i.e. injury incidence, severity and burden. Through an online survey filled by semiprofessional athletes, it is posible to obtain all this important information. This way, it will be possible to fulfill a gap in the literature and take action in the near future in order to reduce the prevalence of injuries in this sport.
