SYMPOSIUM CONCEPT

The evaluation, treatment and care of the athlete, along with the prevention of injuries, demand the full attention and concern of the entire sports medicine team. The concept of this symposium is to demonstrate the importance of the entire sports team including physician, athletic trainer, and physical therapist in preparing the athlete for competition.

This symposium will focus on the proper approaches to prepare athletes for competition, and the treatment and care of athletes following baseball specific injuries of the spine, shoulder, hip, knee, and ankle.  Other areas of focus are the medical issues of athletes such as MRSA, dermatological, nutrition and sport psychology issues in the baseball athlete.

 

OBJECTIVES

Upon completion of this education activity, participants should be able to:

 

•  Discuss the evaluation and treatment options for shoulder and rotator cuff injuries

•  Describe injuries and rehabilitation techniques for softball throwing injuries

•  Identify the common C-spine stenosis and pars defects in the athlete

•  Discuss the evaluation and treatment options for elbow related injuries

•  Discuss the causes, treatment and prevention options in dealing with MRSA

•  Discuss maintenance, conditioning and strengthening programs for upper extremity athletes

•  Discuss throwing mechanics and injury risk for baseball and softball players

•  Discuss the upper extremity clinical evaluation

•  Discuss how to work up knee and ankle injuries

•  Discuss evaluation treatment and rehab options for thoracic outlet syndrome

 

Review of participant critiques from the symposium each year identifies desired topics and new techniques for the next year’s symposium.
