Decreased hip internal rotation increases the risk of back and abdominal muscle injuries in professional baseball players: Analysis of 258 player-seasons
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons May 02, 2018
Camp CL, et al. - Experts evaluated the relationship of hip range of motion (ROM) to shoulder, elbow, abdominal, and back injuries in professional baseball players. Hip ROM was evaluated on players reporting to Major League Spring Training for an organization over 6 seasons (2010 to 2015). Using multivariate binomial logistic regression analysis, hip ROM was correlated with player abdominal, back, shoulder, and elbow injury status for those seasons. Results demonstrated the predictiveness of hip internal rotation deficits for back and abdominal injuries. But it was not predictive of shoulder or elbow injury.
