Šport in UV-sevanje

Hadžić, Vedran (author), Hadžić, Neli (author)

Prevelika izpostavljenost ultravijoličnemu sevanju (UV-sevanju) med vadbo lahko pomembno poveča tveganje za nastanek kožnega raka pri tekmovalnih in rekreativnih športnikih. Pri prvih je zaradi večje in dolgotrajnejše izpostavljenosti soncu tveganje še večje. Med preventivne ukrepe spadajo predvsem uporaba zaščitnih krem, nošenje oblačil, pokrival (majice in kape) in sončnih očal ter drugi splošni ukrepi, kot je redno samopregledovanje kože. Čeprav se večina zaveda nevarnosti UV-sevanja, je težava pri izvajanju preventivnih ukrepov, zato je treba izobraževalne akcije v prihodnje usmeriti v to področje.

Abstract

Overexposure to UV radiation during exercise can significantly increase the risk of skin cancer in competitive and recreational athletes. For the former, the risk is further increased due to higher and longer sun exposure. Preventive measures include, in particular, the use of protective creams and clothing (shirts and caps), the use of sunglasses and other general measures such as regular self-examinations of the skin. Despite the fact that most people are aware of the dangers of UV radiation, there is a problem at the level of the implementation of preventive measures, and future educational campaigns should focus on this area.
