Pediatric Sports Medicine Podcast Mark Halstead

 



We are back to finish out Brain Injury Awareness Month looking at another component of the SCAT6. Today we are going to tackle what I consider to be the “OG” version of the SCAT, otherwise known as the SAC, or the Standardized Assessment of Concussion. We certainly love acronyms in sports medicine, don’t we? Let’s take the deep dive.

March means two things in the world of sports medicine, not counting March Madness. The first is National Athletic Training Month. The second is Brain Injury Awareness Month. In the world of sport-related concussions, it’s an ideal time to continue to bring awareness about concussions, which are a mild traumatic brain injury.



I thought for this year, I’d try to go through the SCAT, or the Sport Concussion Assessment Tool and talk about what we know from an evidence-based standpoint how each of the components function. Today we are going to tackle the Maddocks questions. It’s time to buckle up as we dive into the SCAT.

We are turning the page from our leap year month into March of 2024. It’s time for National Athletic Training Month again. Each year we highlight several athletic trainers to talk about their roles, some interesting cases, struggles, and advice for those starting out in the field. Today on the podcast, I am joined by three secondary school athletic trainers.

If you are coming out of fellowship now, you have requirements for training in the use of ultrasound, both diagnostically and for injections. During my fellowship 20 years ago, we weren’t talking about ultrasound use and I probably missed that boat by about 5 years or so. I personally don’t use ultrasound in my practice because I haven’t really set aside time to train since fellowship ended. I’m one of those people who insist on being really good at something and I just don’t see where I have the free time to teach this older dog a new trick.



But I also have had a harder time finding where ultrasound fits in to my pediatric sports medicine practice. I see a few things that I think it would be great to have a ultrasound to look at quickly. This is where my guest comes in today. I have a pediatric sports medicine physician who uses ultrasound regularly in his practice to teach all of us how ultrasound can benefit us in pediatric sports.

As we all know, the world of youth sports today can sometimes be described as sheer chaos for some families. The frequent travel for competitions, the never-ending quest to keep up with the Joneses, the fear of missing out on developing your child if you don’t get them signed up in preschool for sports camps and skill development, numerous practices, the narrative that you must be involved year-round to be better.







As a sport medicine physician, I stress with families we want sports to be fun, not painful, especially when talking with our pre high school aged athletes. But how can parents support kids without being that parent that everyone sees riding their kid for their mistakes and living their sports life vicariously through their kids. Today on the podcast, we have a sports parent who created a website that’s a valuable resource for parents and especially for every sports medicine professional who works with kids to know about.
