| description | We prospectively determined the risk of initial stinger experience in a group of college football players while considering
the presence of cervical canal stenosis and each player's position, playing time, and body type. Prospective analysis revealed
a 7.7% incidence of initial stinger experience. The average Torg ratio for all players was 0.924 ± 0.122, with the seventh
cervi cal level being the narrowest. Initial stinger experience depended on position played and body type. The Torg ratio
did not influence initial stinger occurrence. Play ers who experienced multiple stingers, however, had significantly smaller
Torg ratios than players experi encing only one stinger (0.75 versus 0.87). A Torg ratio of 0.70 may be a more statistically
and clinically appro priate threshold for determining significant cervical ste nosis and advising collegiate athletes of their
risk of experiencing recurrent stingers. |
