Lesões musculoesqueléticas de acordo com o perfil ténicotático em praticantes de Jiu-Jitsu Brasileiro (JJB)

Abstract

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a martial art with an increasing incidence of practitioners. Like all sports, it is subject to musculoskeletal injuries that, when they occur, can cause important physical and socioeconomic repercussions for athletes. Therefore, it is essential or the knowledge of the epidemiological factors related to the treatment of these injuries, especially when referring to the specificities of the modality. There is little data in the literature, in general, about the epidemiological resources of injuries involving the BJJ, and the effects of combat tests on injuries caused by injuries and the characteristics of injuries that occur in the most affected anatomical segment are unknown. The current study, with a cross-sectional design, had the participation of amateur and professionals athletes of both sexes, aged between 18 and 60 years, BJJ practitioners for at least six months, and was conducted through a mixed questionnaire, adapted from the Referred Morbidity Survey. It was observed which BJJ fight technical-tactical styles (guard or passer), stratified or not by the level of graduation in the modality (novice and advanced athletes), presenting different variations of injuries and what type of knee is anatomical most affected, with emphasis on lesions of the medial compartment of the knee. In addition, a proportion of knee injuries in the BJJ was higher than other sports, that exhibit similar dynamic movements, such as football and handball. Through the knowledge of these epidemiological factors related to injuries in the BJJ, it is possible to visualize a more comprehensive view of the complex interactions and to apply injury surgeries and a training protocol and injury prevention caused by injuries.
