abstract="<p>The popularity of indoor climbing has increased as a recreational activity and competitive event in many countries. International competitions have been held in Iran, including the Fajr Master Cup competition 2012, the Asian Youth Championship 2001, and the Asian Youth Climbing Sports Championship 2012. With the increasing popularity of this sport, it is likely that more climbers will be consulting physicians with climbing-related injuries. Many researchers have demonstrated minor injury risks for indoor climbing in comparison with other sports.  The aim of this study was to evaluate the risk of injury at a high-end Iranian indoor rock climbing competition to analyze injury patterns and to suggest means to prevent injuries.</p> <p>Language: en</p>",
