Summary

This study surveys physiotherapists and team doctors in Sweden's top ice hockey leagues to understand how they perceive and manage hand and wrist injuries. About 50 medical staff will answer questions on injury frequency, underreporting, and return-to-play decisions. The goal is to identify gaps between what injury records show and what happens in real-world care, helping improve future prevention and treatment strategies. No treatments or interventions are given.
