NCT ID NCT06680453
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at injuries from water sports that use foils (like hydrofoil boards) compared to those without. Researchers studied 65 adults who came to the emergency room after a boating accident. The goal was to understand how common foil-related injuries are and what types of injuries occur, so doctors can better prepare for and treat these patients.
