The measurement instrument used was a digital survey, shared by email, on social networks and in person.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n RESULTS:<\/jats:title>\n \n Fifty-six (53.30%) guitar players had injuries throughout their musical practice, totaling 132 injuries, 13 (12.40%) guitar players were injured at the time of assessment and 31 (29.5%) guitar players had injuries in the last 12 months, totaling 63 injuries. The value of injury proportion was 0.29 (CI 95% : 0.14\u20130.44) and the injury rate was 0.42 injuries per 1,000 hours of music practice. The most common types of injury were: tendinopathy (22; 34.92%) and low back pain (9; 14.29%). The most affected anatomical sites were: wrist (18; 28.57%) and lumbar spine (10; 15.87%). Repetitive movement was the injury mechanism most mentioned by guitar players (24; 35.29%) followed by maintaining postures for a prolonged period of time (15; 22.06%). Guitar players who did not warm up before practicing were 0.33 (CI: 0.13\u20130.79;\n p<\/jats:italic>\n \u200a=\u200a0.013) more likely to have an injury.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n CONCLUSIONS:<\/jats:title>\n There was a high percentage of injuries in guitar players and failure to warm up was a risk factor for the development of injuries. This type of study can help in creating injury prevention strategies in this type of population.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3233\/wor-230701","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,3]],"date-time":"2024-05-03T12:22:38Z","timestamp":1714738958000},"page":"965-973","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Epidemiology of neuromuscular injuries in guitar players living in Portugal: Associated risk factors"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"79","author":[{"given":"Raquel Marreiro","family":"dos Santos","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto Piaget de Silves","place":["Portugal"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3341-3189","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Beatriz","family":"Minghelli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Insight: Piaget Research Center for Ecological Human Development","place":["Portugal"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0262207"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fpsyg.2014.00706"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/10803548.2016.1154720"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10067-013-2198-2"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/09638280701800517"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_7_2","unstructured":"Fender.
