E-mail: [email protected] AR Physical Therapy Association Contemporary Topics in Sports & Orthopedic Therapy (6.0 Contact Hours) Description This course will cover the current “hot topics” in sports and orthopaedic physical therapy (and in the popular media, to a certain extent) including concussion management, the epidemic of arm injuries in youth baseball, the phenomenon of early single-sport specialization, and the emergence of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) as a source of hip pain in active young persons. This course will provide contemporary, evidencedbased insights into each of these topics in a manner that is relevant to the clinical practice of physical therapy. Specific presentations and objectives: “Contemporary management of acute and persistent concussion: a physical therapist’s guide to assessment and treatment strategies.” At the conclusion of this course, participants will be prepared to: 1. Describe the pathophysiology and clinical consequences of a concussion, and demonstrate an understanding that each concussion is unique, and thus each patient should be treated based on his/her unique clinical presentation; 2. Perform essential assessments, including the patient interview, neurocognitive testing, vestibulo-occular testing, and balance assessment; 3. Determine the primary clinical trajectory of a persistent concussion injury based on the assessment (trajectories include cognitive/ fatigue, migraine, vestibular, ocular, cervical, and anxiety/mood); 4. Determine which patients need to be referred to other medical disciplines (optometry, ENT, primary care, neurology, mental health, etc.); 5. Provide physical therapy care as indicated, including assisting in return-to-play and return-tolearn decision-making. “The epidemic of shoulder and elbow injuries in youth baseball: facts, fallacies, and forces for positive change.” At the conclusion of this course, participants will be prepared to: 1. Describe what is known (based on research) about identified risk factors related to shoulder and elbow injuries in youth pitchers; 2. Perform a brief pitching screen to identify pitching pathomechanics; 3. Discuss expert-based and evidence-based recommendations related to minimizing the risk of shoulder and elbow injuries in youth baseball. “An evidence-based look at early single-sport specialization versus multisport participation: which is best for performance and health?” At the conclusion of this course, participants will be prepared to: 1. Demonstrate an understanding of the historical development and growth of early singlesport specialization in the US; 2. Demonstrate an understanding of what the available evidence shows with respect to physical injury risks, psychosocial ramifications, and competitive success/opportunity in those who specialize early compared to those who do not; 3. Provide an intelligent and evidence-based perspective on the best time frame to begin specialization in a single sport (in other words, is there a best time frame in which to commit to a single sport, before which results in an increased likelihood of physical injury and burnout, but after which the athlete is too far behind his or her peers to catch up from a skill or competitive standpoint?). “Hip pain and femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) in sports: what PTs need to know.” At the conclusion of this course, participants will be prepared to: 1. Demonstrate an understanding of the types of FAI (cam, pincer, and mixed); 2. Perform a physical examination and assessment that includes specific tests that suggest the possibility of FAI; 3. Demonstrate an appropriate level of understanding of the non-PT means of definitively diagnosing FAI, including imaging and injection techniques; 4. Provide rehabilitative interventions to clients with FAI (from both a non-surgical and a post-surgical perspective).
