Abstract
Musculoskeletal injuries are commonly found among both professional and student. This mixed-method study will address the survey of self-reported injuries among student in secondary school bands in Bangkok. A convergent design was used to collect data for this study, in which the participants were 117 instrumental and marching band students. A questionnaire and semi-structured interview on perceived musculoskeletal injuries were administered. Descriptive statistics and content analysis were used to analyze the data. The results showed: 1) Physical preparations were used sparingly (moderate and low level) during pre and post rehearsal time. 2) During normal times, rehearsal was conducted five days a week and took one to three hours per day; however, during the competition weeks, rehearsal sessions recurred daily and lasted longer than eight hours. There was a positive correlation between rehearsal days and the frequency of student injuries at .05 (r=.191, p=.03). 3) 88.0% of secondary school band students had experienced injuries, the most common of which were to the shoulders, lips, neck, and hands; and 4) injuries can be classified into three types: poor posture, overuse, and a lack of physical preparation.
