An observational study in Sport Injury, sponsored by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de la Réunion. Recruiting at 1 site in Reunion. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2025-07-08.
Sponsored by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de la Réunion · Observational
Beach tennis, a fast-growing sport since its creation in Italy in the 1970s, has rapidly gained in popularity, particularly in La Réunion sisland since 2000. However, despite its development, studies on beach tennis-specific injuries are rare, based on cross-sectional studies and therefore limited by temporal or memory bias. The need for prospective research is crucial if we are to gain a better understanding of the epidemiology of injuries and improve prevention and medical management.
The aim will be to determine the risk of injury among beach tennis players within a one-year national prospective cohort.
2,217 studies on the registry are indexed under Wounds and Injuries; 441 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 440 is above the median of 169 across 690 observational studies indexed under Wounds and Injuries.
