Collegiate/Pro Sports Medicine Model

- ATC ^ Coach ^ Team MD ^ Athletes

Sports Medicine

- American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) ◦ The knowledge concerning the motivation, responses, adaptations, and health of persons engaged in exercise ◦ The term includes all medical and paramedical professionals who are concerned with enhancing the performance and healthcare of these persons

SCS Certification: Process

- Application - Rigorous examination ◦ 200 questions ◦ 6 hours - Re-certification every 10 years ◦ Maintenance of Specialist Certification (MOSC) process began in 2016 ◦ Focuses on continuing competency of the certified specialist

Bracing vs. Taping

- Both have been demonstrated to reduce incidence of acute ankle sprains - No significant difference in effectiveness - Significant difference in cost ◦ Bracing is more cost effective if used for prophylactic purpose

Bracing: Key Points

- Bracing can be an integral part of treating MSK injuries - Single aspect of the overall rehab process (i.e., it should not take the place of rehab) - Research is inconclusive in most cases with regard to clinical efficacy

SCS Certification

- Current PT license - Current CPR certification - Emergency care requirement ◦ Acute Management of Injury and Illness Course ◦ EMT or Paramedic certification/licensure ◦ NATA certification within last 4 years - Direct patient care (2 options) ◦ 2000 hours in specialty area within last 10 years ◦ 25% (500 hrs) within last 3 years ◦ Effective 2017, 100 hours must be documented athletic venue coverage with at least 50% of hours in association with a contact sport OR ◦ Successful completion of APTA-credentialed sports clinical residency

Bracing and ACL

- Dynamic bracing system - Designed to reduce strain on ACL - Cuff and strapping configuration provide a net differential posterior force to tibia, preventing anterior movement

Role of the ATC

- Gate keeper - First line of defense for athletes - Not just a "taper" - Recognized by the American Medical Association, Health Resources Services Administration, and the Department of Health and Human Services as an allied healthcare profession

TN PT Practice Act: Can a PT in TN provide medical coverage at sporting events?

- In emergency circumstances, including minor emergencies, a licensed PT may provide assistance to a person to the best of a therapist's ability without the referral of a referring practitioner. The PT shall refer to the appropriate health care practitioner, as indicated, immediately thereafter.

Role of Sports PT

- Injury evaluation - Injury rehabilitation - Screening/pre-participation exam - Performance enhancement - Testing/functional progression - Return-to-play decision - Outreach administration ◦ Fiscal ◦ Clinical - Sideline coverage (?)

ATC Responsibilities

- Injury recognition and evaluation - Injury management and emergency care - Injury rehabilitation - Program organization and administration - Education/counseling - Extraneous duties

Domains of Athletic Training

- Injury/illness prevention and wellness promotion - Examination, assessment, and diagnosis - Immediate and emergency care - Therapeutic intervention - Healthcare administration and professional responsibility

Patient Education (Bracing)

- MUST accompany use of a brace - Observe patient applying brace - Observe how the brace acts during movement - Provide information on brace hygiene

Ask Relevant Questions (Clinical Sports PT)

- Mechanism of Injury? - Contact or non-contact? - Past medical history of injury? - Aggravating/alleviating? - Risk factors (intrinsic/extrinsic)? - Single or multi-sport? - What is their role/position? - Prior level of function? - Current limitations? - Goals?

Bracing and Ankle Sprains

- Most common injury in sports - Estimated 28,000 ankle injuries occur in US each day - High recurrence rate - Bracing/taping commonly used to prevent recurrence

Detrimental Effects (of Bracing)

- Muscle atrophy/inhibition (?) ◦ No definitive answer - Predisposition to injury of another joint (?) ◦ Evidence of increased load/force to other joints in the kinetic chain, but no definitive evidence that this leads to increased risk of injury - Performance impairments (?) ◦ May induce premature muscle fatigue by reducing perfusion ◦ Increased energy expenditure ◦ Decreased proprioception

Maintaining Certification: Continuing Education Requirements

- NATA-BOC requirements ◦ 50 CEU's every 2 year reporting period ◦ Minimum of 10 EBP CEU's ◦ Maintenance of CPR certification - State requirements ◦ TN—same as NATA ◦ Other states may vary

Guide to PT Practice

- PTs practice in a broad range of inpatient, outpatient, and community based settings, including the following: ◦ Athletic facilities (collegiate, amateur, and professional) ◦ Fitness centers and sports training facilities - APTA has endorsed the concepts of primary care - For acute MSK and neuromuscular conditions, triage and initial exam are appropriate PT responsibilities

The Clinical Sports PT: DOs

◦ Ask relevant questions ◦ Perform needs analysis ◦ Apply exercise prescription appropriately ◦ Provide clear, safe parameters ◦ Offer management strategies

Bracing and ACL - Functional Braces

◦ Attempts to control tibial displacement ◦ Commonly prescribed following ACL reconstruction ◦ Original ACL brace—"derotation" brace ◦ Evidence - Limited evidence supporting clinical efficacy - Similar long-term results with regard to knee laxity, functional tests, ROM, strength, and outcome scores - Evidence of lower subjective instability ratings in ACL-deficient patients ^ Especially in quad-deficient patients

Bracing - Review of Literature: Level I Evidence

◦ May have some benefit with regard to improving kinematics/kinetics ◦ Limited evidence to support that functional brace wear decreases rate of reinjury after ACLR ◦ Does not appear to improve knee function and stability following ACLR

Bracing - Review of Literature: Level III Evidence

◦ No beneficial effect on clinical outcomes or complication rates ◦ Patients using a rigid brace had limited flexion early on in rehab

The Clinical Sports PT: DON'Ts

◦ Overlook "the basics" ◦ Make decisions blindly ◦ Get too fancy ◦ Under-load athletes ◦ Treat with cookie-cutter approach

Categories of Bracing: Prophylactic

◦ Prevent or reduce risk of injury

Categories of Bracing: Rehabilitative

◦ Provide protection and controlled ROM during rehab period

Categories of Bracing: Functional

◦ Provide stability to injured tissue while allowing some level of participation

Bracing - Evidence: Ankle Sprains

◦ Systematic reviews found the use of ankle bracing decreases incidence of sprains - Most effective in those with previous injuries ◦ Superior to NM training in decreasing incidence but not severity of recurrent ankle sprains ◦ Long-term bracing has not been found to affect peroneal latency ◦ Short-term bracing has not been found to affect speed, agility, and kicking performance in healthy soccer players

TN PT Practice Act: Scope of Practice and Supervision - Supervision of PT Assistive Personnel

◦ The PT may delegate to the PTA, assistive personnel, and clinical students selected acts, tasks, or procedures that fall within the scope of their education or training. ◦ PT aides, other assistive personnel, and clinical students shall at all times perform patient care activities under the on-site supervision of a licensed PT or PTA ◦ "Other assistive personnel" means other trained or educated health care personnel (other than PTA or PT aide), who perform specific delegated tasks related to physical therapy under the supervision of a PT. At the discretion of the supervising PT, and if properly credentialed and not prohibited by any other law, "other assistive personnel" or "other support personnel" may be identified by the title specific to their training or education.
