Abstract:Teoretična izhodišča: Medialni tibialni stresni sindrom ali MTSS je preobremenitveni sindrom, s katerim se atleti tekači pogosto srečajo. MTSS se kaže kot z vadbo povzročena bolečina vzdolž sprednje strani tibije. Z našo raziskavo smo želeli podrobneje raziskati razširjenost MTSS med atleti tekači, opredeliti dejavnike za nastanek sindroma in predvsem ugotoviti vpliv fizioterapevtske obravnave na okrevanje. Metode: V diplomskem delu smo podatke zbirali s pomočjo lastnega anketnega vprašalnika preko spletne strani 1-KA, ki je vseboval 24 vprašanj. V raziskavi je sodelovalo 50 neprofesionalnih atletov tekačev iz slovenskih atletskih klubov v mesecu marcu in aprilu 2025. Pridobljene podatke smo analizirali s programom IBM SPSS. Rezultati: V raziskavi je sodelovalo 50 anketirancev, od tega 18 moških in 32 žensk. Povprečna starost anketirancev je bila približno 22,3 ± 3,5 let. Ženski spol ni povezan z višjo pojavnostjo MTSS (p = 0,556), prav tako ne teki na dolge proge (p = 0,625). Večja frekvenca treningov je povezana z višjo pojavnostjo MTSS (p = 0,0067). Fizioterapevtska obravnava skrajša čas okrevanja (p = 0,045) in je osredotočena na področje goleni in preprečevanje simptomov in ne celostni obravnavi. Razprava: Čeprav fizioterapevtska obravnava igra ključno vlogo pri okrevanju po MTSS, se pogosto ne izvaja celostno. Dokazano učinkovite metode se kljub pogostosti sindroma med atleti tekači izvajajo redko, ob tem se fizioterapevti namesto celostni obravnavi osredotočajo na problem lokalno, kar kaže na nizko informiranost in potrebo po večji ozaveščenosti.

Abstract:Theoretical Background: Medial tibial stress syndrome (MTSS) is an overuse syndrome commonly encountered by track and field runners. MTSS manifests as exercise-induced pain along the anterior aspect of the tibia. Our study aimed to investigate the prevalence of MTSS among runners, identify risk factors associated with its onset, and, most importantly, assess the impact of physiotherapy on recovery. Methods: For this thesis, data was collected using a custom-designed online questionnaire distributed via the 1-KA platform, comprising 24 questions. The study involved 50 non-professional runners from Slovenian athletic clubs during March and April 2025. The collected data was analyzed using IBM SPSS. Results: The study included 50 participants, of whom 18 were male and 32 were female. The mean age of respondents was approximately 22,3 ± 3,5 years. Female sex was not associated with a higher incidence of MTSS (p = 0,556), neither was long-distance running (p = 0,625). A higher frequency of training is associated with a higher incidence of MTSS (p = 0,0067). Physiotherapy reduced recovery time (p = 0,045) and was focused on the lower leg area and symptom prevention rather than a holistic treatment approach. Discussion: Although physiotherapeutic treatment plays a key role in recovery from MTSS, it is often not carried out comprehensively. Despite the high prevalence of the syndrome among running athletes, evidence-based effective methods are rarely applied. Physiotherapists tend to focus on the problem locally rather than adopting a holistic approach, indicating low awareness and a need for greater professional education and dissemination of knowledge.
