| Summary: | 碩士 === 國防醫學院 === 護理研究所 === 95 === The intention of national defense is to fight back the foreign enemies and safeguard our country, therefore we put military training into practice in order to promote our vigor and military skills. The entire fighting capacity of national troops depend on the efficiency of each one who receive the training of vigorous skill(Qui, 1999). Owing to strengthening the training of each professional specialties afterwards, thereby the listed soldier receive the training of consecutive skill, which is, the basic training(Wu, 2004). On account of the consistency, which is stressed in military, so it is hard to take account of the difference in each one. In addition to internal factors and external factors of individuals, all kinds of sports injuries are easy to come up. Moreover the sports injuries dose not only make themselves sustain sufferings at present and at a late day but also directly influence the fighting capacity of the military.
The research was designed as a cross-sectional study. In order to investigate sports injuries due to military police’s professional training and associated factors, the samples 1,880 were recruited form the military police’s professional training center between January 1st and March 31st, 2007. The structured questionnaires including demographics, sports injuries cognition, trait anxiety, and psychological skills inventory were used to collect data. The data were analyzed by using descriptive (such as mean、percentage、standard deviation) and inferential (such as Chi-square test、McNemar test、Mann-Whitney U test、Kruskal-Wallis one-way analysis of variance by rank、Spearman rank correlation、One-way ANOVA、Logistic Regression and Receiver Operating Characteristic curve) statistics computed by SPSS Window 13.0 and Stata 9.0 statistical packaged software. P-value less than 0.05 was considered to be the statistically significant level.
The findings of this study revealed that about 26.0% of the subjects got injuries through the military police’s professional training. The most injury was stretch(33.5%) and then overuse (30.27
%). The sort of injured areas were placed as following: knees(15.44%
), legs (14.51%) and ankles(11.5%). Furthermore, the courses in which people reported the greatest injuries was 3-Km run (48.86%) and chin-up (18.3%) as the second. Those who got injuries during the training presented higher levels in perception of sports injuries and trait anxiety rather than those who did not, whereas they got lower levels in psychological skills inventory, such as motivation, peaking under pressure and coping with adversity, coachable, concentration and confidence. After adjusting the variables, there were only six out of all that affected whether getting injury during the professional training. They were ages, injury history, injured history during the recruits’ training, total score of concept of the sports injuries processing, total score of trait anxiety, and the score of confidential factors. The risk ratio was increased 10.4% with increasing one year in age. In the meanwhile, the risk ratio in those who got injured before was greater than those who did not by 83.8%. The risk in those who got injured in the new recruits’ training was 5.679 folds as those did not. With regard to of the sports injuries processing, the odds ratio was decreased 9.5% in the score change from 0 to 1, whereas the odds ratio was increased 2.6% in the score change from 0 to 1 of trait anxiety. In terms of confidence, the score change from 0 to 1 came with 6.7% decreased in odds ratio. In the professional training, the prediction of the adjusted variables could effectively predict the risk of injury by AUC 0.7656.
In conclusion, the results can provide the information to national troops on sports injuries and related factors in the military police’s professional training, which in turns will help to prevent or decrease the occurrence of the sports injuries. The optimal goal will enhance the national troops combat readiness strength and the promotion of military strength.
