APPLICATION OF PHYSICAL TRAINING IN CONJUNCTION WITH REHABILITATION IN MALE SOCCER INJURY

ABSTRACT Introduction: Soccer is one of the sports with the highest incidence of injuries, generated both by the high performance required on the field and by physical conflicts between players. A fast rehabilitation is essential for the player’s performance. It has been empirically observed that an early recovery in patients’ rehabilitation is associated with physical training compared to players who received only the traditional rehabilitation. Objective: Verify the physical training influence on rehabilitation sports injuries in male soccer players. Method: 180 cases of male adolescents with sports injuries admitted to a Taiyuan hospital were selected. A division into two groups was randomly computerized to avoid statistical differences in the intensity of the injuries. The control group (14.3±2.45 years old) was treated with the standard protocol, while the experimental group (15.3±2.95 years old) received an intervention with physical training. Interviews and questionnaires were conducted involving analysis of time and severity of the injury, laterality, and location. The control group received treatment based on this information. The recovery rate and intervention satisfaction rate were collected. SPSS22.0 Statistical Software was used for student’s t-test and chi-square test. Results: Treatment efficiency was 82 (91.11%) in the control group versus 88 (97.78%) in the experimental group. The degree of dissatisfaction was 1 (2.11%) versus 8 (10%). The perceived overall satisfaction was 80 (89%) versus 87 (96.67%), (p <0.05). Conclusion: Rehabilitation associated with physical training intervention improved satisfaction and treatment efficiency. Evidence Level II; Therapeutic Studies – Investigating the results.
