    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Sports Medicine
    • Traumatology

    Background:

    • Winter sports participation is associated with a significant risk of neurological injuries.
    • Concussions represent a substantial portion of these injuries, particularly among skiers.
    • Various equipment and activities contribute to the incidence of winter sports-related trauma.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze the incidence and causes of neurological injuries sustained during winter sports.
    • To determine the proportion of ski-related injuries that involve the neurological system.
    • To identify high-risk activities and scenarios associated with severe winter sports trauma.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of patient data for individuals with winter sports-related injuries.
    • Categorization of injuries based on the type of winter sport and mechanism of trauma.
    • Estimation of neurological injury rates relative to orthopedic injuries in skiing.

    Main Results:

    • Out of 126 patients with neurological injuries, 82 (65%) sustained concussions.
    • Collisions during skiing accounted for 29 concussions.
    • Other activities like tubing, sledding, and snowmobiling also led to injuries; chair lift accidents were noted.

    Conclusions:

    • Concussions are a prevalent neurological injury in winter sports, with skiing collisions being a major cause.
    • Neurological injuries occur in an estimated 5-10% of skiing injuries requiring orthopedic treatment.
    • High-impact events such as collisions with stationary objects or other skiers, and aerial maneuvers, result in the most severe injuries.
