Sports Performance Flashcards
After pre participation screenings, paperwork must be sent to athletic department: What must it include
It must include only the page with the athlete’s name and status regarding clearance is required to be forwarded to the athletic department- they do not need all medical info unless requested
What are the FMS scores
1: unable to perform the movement with compensation
2:able to perform movement with compensation)
3: able to perform movement with no pain or compensation
What are contributing factors related to injury in runners?
History of previous running injury
Training load
Previous competition in running events
An athlete has been diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. He consults with you regarding his ability to participate in sports going forward; what is your recommendation
- discontinuation of all sports for the perceived risk with increased physical activity on dysrhythmia once diagnosed with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
-OR participation in golf or archery- low intensity sports only
Descsribe a Stress test;
used to measure the heart’s ability to respond to exercise
-The test can be done with exercise or drug induction of rapid heart rate
-The level of mechanical stress is increased progressively with slope and speed
What are 4 things that can impair the vocal cords?
Post nasal drip
GERD
Anxiety
Airborn irritants
Cold drinks DONOT
Splenic injuries occur more in what population?
injury occurs more frequently in the younger athletes because the rib cage does not completely cover the spleen in this age group.
Injury to liver is most commonly referred to where?
R shoulder
Blood and other inflammatory products in the diaphragm commonly refer pain to the shoulder region. With the liver in the right upper quadrant, the right shoulder would be the most common referral pattern of pain.
Difference between adjustment disorders and anxiety disorders:
Adjustment disorder: Adjustment disorders are a unique category of psychological concerns that address difficulties adjusting to the demands of life.
Anxiety disorder: Anxiety disorders are characterized as consisting of excessive fear and anxiety in non-life-threatening situations.
Training Guidelines for Reps /sets
Power- 1-5 reps, low volume, long rest
Strength: 2-8 reps, moderate volume, mod rest
Hypertrophy: 8-15 reps, mod / high volume, short/mod rest
Endurance:15-20 reps, high volume, short rest
Describe the Wingate Test:
most widely used protocols for muscle power and, indirectly, anaerobic capacity.
Performance is expressed as:
-mean power (mean work output over 30 seconds),
-peak power (highest power output during any 5-second period),
- fatigue index (difference between peak power and the lowest 5-second period power output, divided by peak power).
Procedure: the participant to cycle at maximal effort for 30 seconds
What mm and cardiovascular changes do you expect to see after training in high high volumes for short durations?
Training the ATP-PC energy system-
will see:
-Increase in stroke volume and cardiac output
-Increased mitochondrial number and increased V02 max
-Decreased heart rate and breathing frequency
What would this training example help with?
4 sets of 5 sprints for 5–10 seconds at maximal intensity with a work–rest ratio of 1:3
Power and
will see:
-Increase in stroke volume and cardiac output
-Increased mitochondrial number and increased V02 max
-Decreased heart rate and breathing frequency
Contributions to injury in Pitching technique- lead foot
Lead foot at contact should be 38-50 degrees flexion
—-If too much extension in lead knee at foot contact increased elbow and shoulder torque bc not enough force absorption through lower extremity as come forwrd
Contributions to injury in Pitching technique- trunk rotation
Pelvis needs to come forward first during stride, before trunk/shoulders during cocking phase
Timing: 23% difference in timing best, 0 is when foot hits ground, 100 % is when release ball
Higher levels of skill demo incr separation of timing of rotation
If early trunk rotation: incr peak elbow valgus load and prox shoulder force
Contributions to injury in Pitching technique- elbow flexion at ball release
Elbow Flexion Angle at Ball Release
If more elbow flexion =more elbow valgus torque and strain to ULC
How many months for return to play after Type 2 SLAP repair?
12 months
What nerve can be damaged during type 2 Slap repair?
supra scapular nerve-suture anchor tips and their relative drilling site can lie very close to the suprascapular nerve and cause an iatrogenic injur
