Day 4 Lectures Flashcards
(48 cards)
Long bone growth plates close at ages
M: 15-17
F: 13-15
___ lags behind osseous development
musculotendinous system
Strategies to reduce injuries injury in youth atheltes
- use needs analysis
- monitor rapid growth changes
- optimize dose response
- use effective training modes in combo
- start early during childhood
- use risk stratification to individualize and protect
- enhance adherence
Risks for developing injury as youth athlete
- training hours per week is more than their numerical age
- playing 1 sport > 8 mo a year
- previous injuries not addressed
- burnout
How to long to return to sport after ACLR in Level 1
9-18 months
Stress + Recovery =
Adaptation
Fitness - Fatigue =
Performance
lack of sleep for youth
poor decisions about food
decreased mental sharpness
reduced tissue healing
Sleep for youth
- single greatest, cheapest, proven recovery tool
- Teenagers need 8-10 hrs/night
- when they sleep well, release growth hormone, rebuild tissues, decrease anxiety
- less than necessary increases risk for injury by 1.7
RF for Injuries include
- concussions
- football
- males
- 14-18 yo
Common overuse injuries
- little league elbow and shoulder
- tibial and calcaneal apophysitis
- bone stress injuries
Pediatric Fractures
- proximity to growth plate may require extra imaging for tracking of proper growth
- vascular or neural compromise might delay healing
- immobilization may be hard dependent on age
- faster healing times due to thicker periosteum and high metabolism
RF for Osgood-SChlatter
- high training loads
- quads strong/tight, hammies weak
- COM behind support leg
- higher arches
ankle DF < 10° - vitamin d deficiency
Prognosis for OS
- without treatment, 2 years of healing
- with PT, 3-6 mo
Management for OS
- activity.load mods
- ankle mobility
- hamstring motor control
- quad motor control
- NO NSAID
OS Overview
- apophysitis at tibial tuberoisty
- repetitive load at immature growth plate
- often in boys age 14
- soccer is most common, in plant leg
Calcaneal Apophysitis/Sever’s Disease Overview
- heel pain in adolescents
- repeptitive stress
- more common in 12 yo boys
RF for Sever’s Disease
- obesity
- history of OSD
- rapid growth
- high frequency of high speed/high impact sports like track, football, ballet, basketball, tennis
- limited ankle DF
- pronated foot posture
- toe walking is NOT a RF
Mgmt for Sever’s Disease
- stretching is painful
- address mid and forefoot vs calf
- lack of motion in foot
- heel lifts early on, orthotics later on
- heel raise/eccesntric
- typically 4012 weeks for RTS
Summary for Sever’s Disease
- manage load
- limit/avoid NSAIDs
- build up rest of system
- address form faults
- eccentric training
Golf Swing biomehcanics
- lower COG and wider BOS for stability
- ball displacement due to angular velocity and long/rigid lever
- sequential summation of forces
- stretch-shortening cycle
- transfer of body weight
more stability in golf allows for
less deviation in club path
improved force transfers
Golf Swing phases
- backswing
- forward swing
- acceleartion
- early follow-through
- late follow through
Dowswing
- summation and transfer of forces in sequence
- rotation sequence initiated by hips, spine, shoulder, elbow, wrist
