Abstract

Alpsko skijanje svake je godine sve popularnije pa se sve više ljudi uključuje u ovaj zimski
sport. Kako raste broj sudionika koji se bave alpskim skijanjem na snijegu, tako raste i broj
ozljeda koje se događaju tijekom bavljenja ovim sportom. Najčešća ozljeda u alpskom skijanju
je ozljeda donjih ekstremiteta, točnije koljena.
U ovom radu pažnja je usmjerena na ozljede glave i gornjeg dijela tijela, jer se te ozljede također
pojavljuju i u nekim slučajevima su i kobne. Osim ozljeda glave u radu će se govoriti i o
ozljedama leđa, ramena, ključne kosti te čestoj ozljedi gornjeg dijela tijela, ozljedi ligamenta
ručnog palca.
Cilj ovog rada bio je opisati mehanizme nastanka ozljeda glave i gornjeg dijela tijela te prikazati
okolnosti koje su prethodile nastanku ozljeda. Isto tako cilj je navesti primjere kako smanjiti,
kako prevenirati nastanke pojedinih ozljeda kako bi se mogućnost ozljeđivanja skijaša smanjila.
Prevencija za ozljede glave nošenje je skijaške kacige, dok je kod ozljeda trupa prevencija još
nedovoljno istražena te su na tom području potrebna dodatna istraživanja. Postoje preporuke
kao što su pridržavanje pravila skijališta te generalnih smjernica: provjera skijaške opreme prije
skijanja, kondicijska priprema rekreativaca za skijanje te prestanak skijanja pri pojavi umora.

Abstract (english)

Alpine skiing is becoming more and more popular every year, and more and more people are
getting involved in this winter sport. As the number of participants who engage in skiing grows,
so unfortunately does the number of injuries that occur during alpine skiing. The most common
injury in alpine skiing is an injury to the lower extremities, specifically the knee.
In this paper, the focus is on head and upper body injuries because these injuries are also
frequent, and in some cases fatal. In addition to head injuries, the paper will discuss injuries to
the back, shoulder, collarbone, and the common injury to the upper body, the thumb ligament
injury.
The aim of this paper was to describe the mechanisms of injury to the head and upper body,
and to present the circumstances that preceded the injury. Give examples of how to reduce or
prevent the occurrence of certain injuries in order to reduce the possibility of injuring skiers to
a minimum.
The prevention of head injuries is wearing a helmet, while the prevention of trunk injuries is
still insufficiently researched and further efforts are needed in this area. There are
recommendations such as adherence to ski resort rules and general guidelines: checking ski
equipment before skiing, fitness preparation of recreational skiers, stopping skiing when tired.
