HYPOTHESIS AND BACKGROUND: The relationship between baseball pitchers' satisfaction with their performance and the incidence of shoulder and elbow injuries is unclear. We hypothesized that self-evaluated satisfaction with pitching performance before an injury and incidence of shoulder and elbow injuries are related
METHODS: Baseline data on baseball experience, height, weight, elbow and shoulder range of motion, and shoulder muscle strength of high-school baseball pitchers were collected. During the season, all participants completed a self-recorded questionnaire regarding satisfaction scores, presence of shoulder and/or elbow pain, and pitching limitations due to shoulder and/or elbow pain experienced daily to determine when injuries occurred and record the satisfaction scores. The optimal satisfaction score cutoff value was determined through receiver operating characteristic curve analysis; participants were categorized into satisfied and unsatisfied groups. Statistical tests were performed to evaluate the differences between the groups, obtain the time-to-event curves, and calculate the hazard ratios for the incidence of injury
RESULTS: Overall, 108 participants aged 15-17 years were enrolled and divided into satisfied (88) and unsatisfied (20) groups. The injury incidence rate was 10.2% and 50.0% in the satisfied and unsatisfied groups, respectively. High-school baseball pitchers with low satisfaction had a significantly increased risk of shoulder and elbow injuries; these players had a 7.3-times greater risk of injuries and 1.9-times earlier occurrence of injuries than pitchers who were satisfied with their performance
CONCLUSION: Daily evaluation of players' self-satisfaction could predict shoulder and elbow injuries in high-school baseball pitchers
