“…There is no unified standard for the definition of the concept of “sports injury.” Scholars believe that the definition of injury depends on the time for athletes to receive sports guidance or rehabilitation, while some scholars believe that there are only two views on the effect of sports training on injury [ 15 ]. Gait is the behavior characteristic of human walking, which is affected by many factors.…”

The study goal is to solve the problem of the diagnosis of triceps crus injury of volleyball players, meet the needs of volleyball players and team doctors for the correct diagnosis of triceps crus injury scanning, make up for the deficiency that triceps crus injury scanning diagnosis is easy to make mistakes, and improve the efficiency and ability of triceps crus injury diagnosis scanning. Because the experiment involves the technical action of volleyball jump serve, DELSYSR Trignomobile wireless portable surface electromyography tester (16 leads) made in the United States is selected to test the surface electromyography of the main muscle groups of college male volleyball players in the process of jump serve. The German made simi-3D motion image system is used to conduct three-dimensional synchronous test of athletes’ jump serve action. The data analysis software adopts EMG work analysis, EMG analysis software, and simi-3D motion image analysis system for postprocessing data. The original signal is filtered (400 Hz for low pass and 20 Hz for high pass) and rectified. Finally, IEMG, EMG contribution rate, and RMS were calculated. This ensures the accuracy of the experiment.

“…Detection of such limitations is especially critical in patients with triceps injuries because the demographic that experiences such injuries often participates in competitive or high-level athletics or activities. 19 Mair et al 20 examined triceps injuries in National Football League (NFL) players during a 6-year span from 1991-1996. They included 10 partial and 11 complete triceps ruptures.…”

Purpose: To use validated outcome measures to evaluate the clinical results of surgical repair of distal triceps tendon ruptures using transosseous tunnels and high-strength sutures with proximally based knots. Methods: A consecutive series of traumatic distal triceps tendon ruptures at a single institution was studied. All cases were surgically repaired by 1 surgeon using high-strength suture with a bone tunnelebased repair technique. Repair knots were oriented proximally instead of in the traditional distal position. All patients were evaluated at long-term follow-up with a physical examination performed by the orthopaedic surgeon and the following validated outcome measures: Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand score; Mayo Elbow Performance Score; and visual analog scale score. Results: Seven male patients with a mean age of 38 years (range, 19-50 years) and mean follow-up period of 4.1 AE 1.2 years underwent distal triceps tendon repair with bone tunnels and high-strength sutures with proximally positioned knots. Of the repairs, 4 involved the dominant arm. At final follow-up, the mean Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand score was 1.3 AE 3.1; the mean Mayo Elbow Performance Score was 99.3 AE 1.9; and the mean visual analog scale score was 0. One additional patient who declined participation in the study had wound dehiscence and infection with an associated partial rerupture. Conclusions: This case series of triceps tendon repairs using transosseous tunnels and proximally based knots showed favorable postoperative elbow function based on validated outcome measures. Level of Evidence: Level IV, therapeutic case series.

“…S9). 36 Avulsions can result from chronic overuse in athletes, but they more commonly occur because of an acute forceful eccentric contraction of the muscle (falling on the outstretched hand, weight lifting) with or without a concomitant blow to the posterior aspect of the elbow. 37 Various long-lasting systemic processes may fragilize the distal tendon: for example, chronic renal failure, hyperparathyroidism, rheumatoid arthritis, or anabolic steroid use.…”

Tendon injuries at the elbow affect mostly the distal biceps and can progressively degenerate over time or rupture in an acute event. The degree of retraction may depend on the integrity of the lacertus fibrosus, a fibrous expansion that merges with the forearm flexor fascia. Biceps disorders are frequently associated with fluid or synovitis of the adjacent bicipital bursa; primary bursal disorders (primary inflammatory synovitis) can also be observed. Distal triceps is less frequently injured than the distal biceps, and tears usually manifest as distal ruptures with avulsion of a small flake of bone from the tip of the olecranon. Brachialis injuries are uncommon and the consequence of sudden muscle stretching during forced elbow hyperextension, as in posterior elbow luxation.
