    The AAP Clinical Report on Overuse Injuries, Overtraining, and Burnout

    Youth sports can have many benefits to use. However, the world of youth sports, in some situations, has taken a life of its own. Many young athletes play multiple games in a day, on multiple teams, year-round, and often with added independent skill or endurance training. Too much can lead to overuse injuries, overtraining and burnout. Today on the podcast we have the two lead authors of the recent American Academy of Pediatrics Clinical Report on Overuse Injuries, Overtraining, and Burnout in Youth Athletes published in February of 2024.    Connect with The Host!

    Ethical Issues in Sports Medicine

    On a regular basis in sports medicine, we are faced with ethical dilemmas. Whether or not we should allow kids to play certain sports based on injury risk, performance enhancement and equipment advances, treatment interventions, return to play decisions, and conflicts of interest to name a few. These issues may cause disagreements between the athlete and the physician or even among physicians as to how to best deal with various situations.   During my pediatrics residency training, I had the privilege of learning from an ethicist who not only provided me with a process to improve my critical thinking and how to approach things from multiple views, but also was truly influential in shaping me into the physician I am today. Today on the podcast I have a pediatric physician who is considered a true expert on ethics. I hope you finish listening today with a new appreciation for ethics in medicine.    Connect with The Host!

    A Review of the SAC (Standardized Assessment of Concussion) — Brain Injury Awareness Month

    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.    Connect with The Host!

    A Review of The Maddocks Questions — Brain Injury Awareness Month

    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.    Connect with The Host!
