Zusammenfassung
Mountainbiken hat den Sprung von der Trendsportart zur ernstzunehmenden Disziplin geschafft. Die verschiedenen Facetten der Sportart und das Verletzungsmuster von Spitzenbikern sowie Breitensportlern werden dargestellt. Die zugrunde liegenden Daten basieren einerseits auf den Erfahrungen, die während der mehrjährigen Betreuung von Teams der internationalen Spitzenklasse gesammelt wurden, andererseits auf dem Zahlenmaterial der größten Unfallversicherung der Schweiz, der SUVA. Besonderes Gewicht wird dabei auf die Prävention der Commotio cerebri gelegt, die in den letzten Jahren einen prominenten Platz in der sporttraumatologischen Literatur eingenommen hat.
Abstract
Mountain biking grew from a trend to a serious branch of sport. This article presents the different subspecialties within the sport, the injury rates and the types of injuries among high-class and recreational bikers. The experiences made during several years as a team physician of top athletes as well as the statistics from the Swiss accident insurance company SUVA are the basis for the data presented. The issue of mountain bike-related concussions is particularly discussed since this type of injury is a point of increasing concern in the recent sports traumatology literature.
