202Head, Spine & Plexus: Screening and Return to PlayJoseph S. Torg MD, John A. Bergfeld MD, Mark Lovell PhD, ABPN

This course presents guidelines for evaluation, management, and returnto play criteria for injuries that occur to the central and peripheralnervous systems as a result of participation in competitive andrecreational activities. Although all athletic injuries require carefulattention, the evaluation and management of head, spine, and brachialplexus injuries should proceed with particular caution. The actual orpotential involvement of the nervous system creates a high-risk situationin which the margin for error is low. An accurate diagnosis is imperative,but the clinical picture is not always representative of the seriousness ofthe injury at hand. An intracranial hemorrhage may present initially withminimal symptoms yet follow a precipitous downhill course, whereas aless severe injury, such as neurapraxia of the cervical spinal cordassociated with alarming paresthesias and paralysis, quickly resolves.Although the more severe injuries are rather infrequent, this lowincidence coincidentally results in little, if any, management experience for the on-site medical staff.

IC 202 ObjectivesUpon completion of this Instructional Course, learners should be able to:• Perform on-site triage of an athlete with acute signs and /or

symptoms of an insult or injury to the nervous system• Develop a diagnostic plan utilizing appropriate imaging,electromyography, and cognitive function testing to supplement theneurological findings • Apply established return to activity criteria

AOSSM is sponsoring a health and physical evaluation for interested participants on Thursday, July 10 and Friday, July 11. A wide range of testingis offered. These field tests give the participant a general picture of the various factors that are incorporated into the overall concept of health andphysical fitness.

The Health and Fitness Evaluation includes the following tests:

HEALTH HISTORY QUESTIONNAIRERegistrants receive the Par-Q Questionnaire prior to the evaluation.

1. BODY COMPOSITION – Skinfolds are used to estimate lean body mass and percentage of body fat. This is particularly useful for those tryingto drop a pound or two, since the test will determine ideal weight.

2. FLEXIBILITY – The modified sit and reach test–measuring flexibility of the hips, low back and hamstrings. In addition, other areas are assessed.

3. CARDIOVASCULAR ENDURANCE–The Harvard 5 minute step test is utilized using HR monitors and measuring response to exercise. This test is an estimate of maximum aerobic capacity.

4. POWER –Power can be estimated using the vertical jump tests. Jump height measured as the difference between starting reach andmaximal jump reach.

5. MUSCULAR ENDURANCE – Two areas that are characteristically low in endurance–the abdominals and shoulder girdle–can be measuredusing a time task. How many sit-ups and push-ups can you do in one minute?

6. AGILITY – Agility is the ability to change body positions or directions of the body rapidly. This ability is measured with running tests thatrequire the subject to turn, start, or stop.

Evaluation consults are scheduled on a one-to-one basis following the completion of the evaluation.

ADVANCE REGISTRATION FORMEveryone is eligible for the program. If you have a family member or guest who would also like to participate, you must register and pay for them atthis time.
