“…[1] does offer some important conclusions despite these limitations, including evidence that musculoskeletal injury is an important issue for all dancers and that there is preliminary evidence that comprehensive injury prevention and management strategies may reduce injuries. In a follow-up to the original Hincapie et al review [1], Jacobs et al [2] extends the review period from October 2004 to March 2008. Repeating their methodology the authors reviewed a further 19 articles that were deemed scientifically admissible (with similar reasons for exclusion noted as per their previous review).…”

“…The authors comment that 69% of the articles identified from the titles and abstracts were consequently not accepted following full text review due to lack of scientific vigour. Of the studies accepted Hincapie et al [1] indicates the literature has many limitations resulting in difficulty in drawing consistent conclusions. The limitations include: the variety of injury definitions used; the heterogeneous nature of the populations; failure to identify the population at risk that should form the denominator in incidence (or prevalence) calculations; and the wide range of inclusion and exclusion criteria.…”

Background: Within sport, mitigation of risk of injury through the use of comprehensive specialist sports medicine provision is commonplace. Dance participation, through its athletic nature can also introduce risk of injury, but unlike sport, is not always recognised that specialist medicinal provision will assist in the mitigation of that risk. Objectives: This systematic review has two objectives: to examine the extent of injury in dance participation; and the impact that specialist dance medicine provision has on overall dance injury incidence. Data sources: The review was undertaken using the Medline electronic databases using MeSH terms relating to the framing question. Study Eligibility Criteria and Participants: The study was based on ballet or any forms of artistic dance that had as its focus musculoskeletal injuries, or screening for injury prevention or interventions to reduce musculoskeletal injury. Interventions: The use of specialist dance medicine provision programmes including in-house medical teams, screening and exercise programmes Study appraisal and synthesis methods: As the literature relating to dance injury comprised of observational studies, the GRADE system was utilised. Results: The results of this systematic review reflect those of two previous systematic reviews in that little progress has been made in terms of quality of papers in recent years. On overall injury incidence of 1.33/1000hrs and a reduction in injury from 2.46/1000hrs to 0.84/1000hrs due to the impact of specialist dance medicine provision was calculated. Limitations: PubMed was not utilised as the search required medical subheadings and therefore the exclusion of unpublished work/thesis, poster presentations and abstracts along with chapters from books may reduce the total number of studies available from which evidence and recommendations can be drawn Conclusions and implications of key findings: An overall recommendation was made that, in the absence of stronger evidence, those involved with organising participation in dance consider the value of specialist medical provision. In addition, due to the low level of evidence reviewed, a call for consensus on injury data collection in dance is made to improve the quality of evidence in dance injury literature

“…Posebnu pažnju treba usmjeriti na mlade plesače koji već u ranoj, dječjoj dobi započinju s intenzivnm učenjem baletne tehnike što ih svrstava u visoko rizičnu skupinu izloženosti ozljedama i pojave profesionalnih bolesti koji mogu značajno utjecati na njihovo buduće zdravlje (10,13,14). Za razvoj dobroga plesača karakterističan je dug razvoj, stalno vježbanje koje može kod pojedinaca prijeći i u pretjerano vježbanje te uzrokovati ozljede i oštećenja mišićnoga i koštanoga sustava, mentalne i emocionalne probleme.…”

Ozljede i bolesti mogu znatno utjecati na stvaralačku sposobnost, kreativnost i dostignuća umjetnika. Povezanost uvjeta i načina rada s pojavom bolesti u umjetnika prepoznata je već u srednjem vijeku. Tjelesna zahtjevnost izvedbe, gdje se tijelo koristi kao instrument izražavanja, može uzrokovati ozljede i razvoj profesionalnih bolesti koje mogu dovesti do nemogućnosti umjetničke interpretacije na očekivanoj razini, prekinuti aktivnosti i onemogućiti nastavak profesionalne karijere. Plesači su jedna od skupina umjetnikaizvođača koji su izloženi specifi čnim rizicima i kojima treba specifi čna zdravstvena zaštita, što nije moguće ostvariti bez poznavanja mehanizama nastajanja ozljeda i uvažavanja posebnosti potreba plesača. Mnogi plesači teže visokim umjetničkim i estetskim kriterijima izvedbe, pri čemu često protežu svoje tjelesne mogućnosti i izdržljivost i zanemaruju vlastita tjelesna ograničenja. Zdravstveni problemi plesača obuhvaćaju čitav niz ozljeda, profesionalnih bolesti i bolesti vezanih uz rad koji se kreću od stresa i straha od nastupa sve do poremećaja u prehrambenim navikama. Također obuhvaćaju ozljede mišićno-koštanoga sustava, sindrome prenaprezanja i trenažnoga preopterećenja koje može uzrokovati karakterističnu topološku pojavu boli, koja je često početak kroničnih zdravstvenih problema kod plesača. Navedeni zdravstveni problemi plesača sve su češće područje zanimanja liječnika različitih specijalizacija, unaprjeđenja i provođenja preventivnih programa, dijagnostičkih metoda i liječenja u tom djelu populacije. Arh Hig Rada Toksikol 2012;63:239-246 Plesom se još od prethistorijskog doba obilježavalo različite događaje u ljudskom društvu. S vremenom su pokreti, uzastopnim ponavljanjem poprimili određene ritmički uobličene obrasce i pretvorili se u ples, koji se izvodi radi iskazivanja emocija i ostavljanja određenoga dojma na publiku. Plesanje je ritmično kretanje tijela prema zvucima glazbe koje objedinjuje plesne pokrete tijela i zvuk, glumu, pantomimu, prikazuje ideje i priče, a izvodi se pojedinačno, u parovima ili u skupinama (1). Ples obuhvaća razne plesne tehnike i stilove kao što su balet, jazz dance, suvremeni ples, standardni plesovi (engleski i bečki valcer, tango, slowfox, quickstep) i latinoamerički plesovi (samba, rumba, paso doble, jive, cha-cha-cha), folklorni plesovi, street dance (breakdance, house, hip hop), a novi plesni stilovi se i nadalje razvijaju. Svaki od plesova ima svoje specifi čnosti izvođenja pokreta. Sa zdravstvenoga stajališta ples ima višestruke pozitivne učinke na zdravlje jer doprinosi razvoju motoričkih sposobnosti (koordinacije, ravnoteže, frekvencije pokreta, izdržljivosti, fl eksibilnosti), a koristi i kao pomoć u liječenju somatskih, neuroloških i psihijatrijskih poremećaja (2, 3).

Background Adolescent ballet dancers have a higher incidence of injury than adult professional dancers. It is unclear which factors, including biomechanical changes related to intense dance training and/or the growth process itself, contribute to increased injury risk in this population. Objective To assess changes in strength, flexibility, and functional performance in adolescent ballet dancers during a summer intensive dance program. Design Prospective cohort study. Setting Performing arts school in a suburb of Massachusetts. Participants A convenience sample of 58 male and female ballet dancers, 12 to 17 years old, was enrolled. One dancer did not have functional testing due to injury, but strength and range of motion results were included. Methods Paired sample t‐test was used to evaluate changes in (1) strength: lower abdominal muscle strength evaluated by the Kendall double leg lowering test; (2) flexibility: passive range of motion in hip extensibility, hip internal rotation, hip external rotation, hip turnout, and ankle dorsiflexion; and (3) functional athletic and dance assessment: the star excursion balance test (SEBT), vertical jump test, and dance technique performing demi‐plié and passé dance positions. Main Outcome Measurements Change in strength, flexibility, and functional dance measurements pre‐ and postsummer intensive dance training. Results Lower abdominal strength testing improved 11° on the Kendall test (P < .001); lower extremity passive flexibility was reduced in all tested ranges bilaterally. Dance technique, in performing demi‐plié and passé dance positions, improved. More dancers demonstrated correct knee alignment during demi‐plié (P < .001‐.002) and hip alignment during plié (P = .01‐.04). Dancers also had greater active hip turnout in first position passé of 2 to 3° (P = .02‐.05). No significant change was found in functional athletic performance as measured by the SEBT and vertical jump test. Conclusion Adolescent dancers in this study cohort who participated in a summer intensive dance program improved lower abdominal muscle strength as well as functional dance technique in demonstrating correct alignment performing demi‐plié and passé dance positions despite a decrease in passive lower extremity range of motion. Further research is needed to clarify the role of these findings in training for young dancers in order to move forward injury prevention efforts. Level of Evidence II
