    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To assess the epidemiological profile of Jiu-Jitsu black belt athletes, including the prevalence of pain and shoulder function. METHODS: Cross-sectional study carried out with Jiu-Jitsu athletes from 2014 to 2016. The studied variables were: sex, age, dominant limb, weight, height, profession, time of Jiu-Jitsu practice, weekly training hours, other practiced sports, comorbidities, injuries and previous surgeries, medications and habits. For the functional assessment of the shoulder, the ASES Score was used. RESULTS: 53 male athletes were evaluated. There was a prevalence of alcohol consumption (60.4%) and supplement use (32.1%). The practice of other sports included weight training (49.1%) and other martial arts (17%). There was a prevalence of knee (66.0%) and shoulder (52.8%) injuries and, in some cases, the need for surgical procedures. There was a prevalence of shoulder pain (73.6%) and more than half of the athletes (52.9%) had minimal or moderate limitation of shoulder function. CONCLUSION: Jiu-jitsu black belt athletes often have a history of injuries, with the shoulder being the second most affected body part. In more than half of the athletes, there was a prevalence of shoulder pain and functional limitation, according to the ASES Score. Level of evidence III, Retrospective comparative study. OBJETIVO: Avaliar o perfil epidemiológico de atletas faixas-pretas de jiu-jitsu, incluindo a prevalência de dor e a função do ombro. Métodos: Estudo transversal realizado com atletas de jiu-jitsu entre 2014 e 2016. As variáveis estudadas foram: sexo, idade, membro dominante, peso, altura, profissão, tempo de prática do esporte, horas semanais de treino, outros esportes praticados, comorbidades, lesões e cirurgias prévias, medicamentos e hábitos. Para a avaliação funcional do ombro, foi utilizado o escore American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons Standardized Shoulder Assessment Form (ASES). RESULTADOS: Foram avaliados 53 atletas, todos do sexo masculino. Houve alta prevalência de consumo de bebida alcoólica (60,4%) e uso de suplementos (32,1%). A prática de outros esportes incluiu musculação (49,1%) e outras artes marciais (17%). Houve alta prevalência de lesões no joelho (66,0%) e no ombro (52,8%), e em alguns casos houve a necessidade de procedimentos cirúrgicos. Verificou-se alta prevalência de dor no ombro (73,6%), sendo que mais da metade dos atletas (52,9%) apresentaram limitação mínima ou moderada da função do ombro. Conclusão: Atletas faixas-pretas de jiu-jitsu frequentemente apresentam histórico de lesões, sendo o ombro o segundo local mais acometido. Houve alta prevalência de dor nos ombros e limitação funcional conforme o escore ASES em mais da metade dos atletas. Nível de evidência III, Estudo comparativo retrospectivo.
