This study was to develop and evaluate injury prevention education proposal which will helpful and can be utilized directly on the first line spot for elementary school children. Education proposal development and evaluation process was 1) Construction of 10-times education proposal contents proper to schooler 2) Testify validity through 3 pediatric nursing professor and 4 elementary school nurse 3) Pretest was done from March, 2002 to July on 3-6th grade 313 elementary school students 4) Through correction and revision after pretest evaluation meeting, final injury prevention education proposal was developed 5) After 10-times injury education, evaluation was carried out about the degree of help in education contents and general constitution of injury education to total subjects of educated children. Injury prevention education proposal consists of 10 times and each subjects are followings. 1st is 「introduction of injury prevention education and the importance of injury prevention」 2nd is「safety in and around home」, 3rd is 「injury prevention in school」, 4th is 「prevention of violence」, 5th is 「motor vehicle safety」, 6th is 「water safety」, 7th is 「prevention of fire and burns」, 8th is 「toy and product safety」, 9th is 「sports and recretional activities safety」and the final 10th is 「injury prevention caused by animals」. In the evaluation, the degree of help in education contents showed it helped to children averaged 1.66 and general constitution showed averaged 2.17 that children satisfied about developed injury prevention proposal. This study expected to provide systematic and concrete guidance in injury prevention education for elementary school children.

Purpose: To evaluate the overall results and its major affecting factors(athlete/associated injury) of modified Brostrom procedure for chronic ankle lateral instability. Materials and Methods: Fifty-one patients (51 ankles) with chronic ankle lateral instability were sub-grouped athletes and non-athletes and again sub-grouped with associated injury and without associated injury. Associated injuries were osteochondral defect(6), peroneal tendon abnormality(10), os subfibularae(4), os subtibialae(4), anterior impingement(5) and loose body(2). The overall surgical results were evaluated and also see whether or not athletes and associated injury affect the result. Result: Of the 51 operations performed, there were 39 excellent, 8 good and 4 fair as a whole. Of the 24 athletes operated, there were 19 excellent, 3 good, and 2 fair. Among the 27 non-athletes, there were 20 excellent, 5 good and 2 fair results. The average time to ordinary life in the non-athlete group was 2.5 months and average time to sports activity in the athlete was 4.5 months postoperatively. Those who didn't have any associated injury had all excellent result, on the contrary, those who had associated injuries, 14 excellent, 8 good and 4 fair results. All the fair results were associated with osteochondral lesion of talus. Whether or not the patient is athlete does not affect the surgical results, but whether or not there were associated injuries does affect the surgical results. Conclusion: Modified Brostrom procedure for chronic ankle lateral instability itself is an excellent to good operation. This procedure can be used in athletic populations who need high demand of sports activity. But chronic ankle lateral instability with associated injury group showed variable, less satisfactory results than those without associated injury. Careful preoperative and intraoperative examination should be done to find out the associated injury with chronic ankle lateral instability.

The purpose of this study is to design a process for developing wearable sports helmet devices by utilizing IoT server technology, focusing on sports where helmet wear is essential at sports sites. This enables customized training of athletes by continuously accumulating personal biometric information during training, checking players' condition based on data, and informing them of injury prevention and dangerous situations. In addition, the wearable device that can be useful when the training place is likely to damage the physical health due to heat waves or extremes can provide a foundation for improving the performance. Since such technology can be applied not only to the sports field but also to the society such as the industrial field or the underprivileged, it can be expected to be expandable.

Burner or stinger syndrome is a rare sports injury caused by direct or indirect trauma during high-speed or contact sports mainly in young athletes. It affects peripheral nerves, plexus trunks or spinal nerve roots, causing paralysis, paresthesia and pain. We report the case of a 57-year-old male athlete suffering from burner syndrome related to a lumbar nerve root. He presented with prolonged pain and partial paralysis of the right leg after a skewed landing during the long jump. He was initially misdiagnosed since the first magnet resonance imaging was normal whereas electromyography showed denervation. The insurance company refused to pay damage claims. Partial recovery was achieved by pain medication and physiotherapy. Burner syndrome is an injury of physically active individuals of any age and may appear in the cervical and lumbar area. MRI may be normal due to the lack of complete nerve transection, but electromyography typically shows pathologic results.

Avulsion rupture of the flexor digitorum profundus tendon at the distal phalanx is a rare injury. It usually occurs during extension of the DIP joint, while the flexor digitorum profundus tendon is contracted, or when strong extension force is applied, to the distal phalanx. We experienced a patient, combat policeman who had avulsion rupture of flexor digitorum profundus tendon at the distal phalanx after 2 days of combat exercise. Here, we would like to report unusual case of rare tendon injury with studies from other papers.

Ligaments are functionally very important structures in the joints of human. Many studies have been performed about injury mechanisms and mechanical properties of ligaments. Although treatment methods of injured ligaments have continually improved, many questions still remain about enhancing the rate, quality and completeness of ligament healing. For studies and understanding of the healing of ligaments that have important functions in the joint, this article reviews histological characteristics, mechanical properties and process of healing.
