Accidentology and Traumatology Associated With Foiling in Brittany (TRAUMAF)

January 20, 2025 updated by: University Hospital, Brest

In the 2010s, the practice of water sports was turned upside down by the arrival of a new discipline: foiling. The number of sailors, particularly amateurs, is increasing every every year. The foil offers greater speed and height, and has therefore the accidents and injuries that result. injuries. But there are very few studies on the subject. The TRAUMAF study proposes to compare the distribution of the number of patients injured during water sports with and without the use of foils. The study also looks at patient management and the type of injury. The aim is to anticipate the management of these patients during periods of practice of these sports.
