Return-To-Tennis Considerations And An Elusive Diagnosis For A Cuboid Avulsion Fracture: A Disablement Model Case Study, Grant G. Yee, Zachary K. Winkelmann, Zoe J. Foster
Clinical Practice in Athletic Training
This disablement-model case study is focused on a 23-year-old NCAA Division I men’s tennis player that sustained an injury in a competitive singles tennis match. Upon initial examination, the athletic trainer diagnosed the individual with an anterior talofibular ligament sprain and treated conservatively. The patient experienced significant disruptions to his activities of daily living due to his difficulties with ambulation during the early stages of his recovery. Interestingly, the patient was eventually diagnosed with a cuboid avulsion fracture. Midfoot fractures are uncommonly experienced in the general population, and are particularly uncommon in tennis athletes, making them difficult to recognize. Clinical …
The Diagnosis, Rehabilitation, And Treatment Of Posterior Impingement In A High School Baseball Pitcher, K Tisdale
Clinical Practice in Athletic Training
Introduction: Posterior impingement, also known as internal impingement, is a type of secondary impingement that is caused by overuse and repetitive movements of the shoulder overhead during motions such as throwing, spiking, etc. A combination of shoulder abduction and external rotation produces impingement of the infraspinatus and/or of the supraspinatus against the posterior-superior glenoid. Posterior impingement is common in overhead athletes, and this mechanism is usually seen during the cocking phase of throwing. Someone suffering from posterior impingement may complain of posterior shoulder pain, posterior stiffness and decline in performance. Patient Information: In this case study, a 15- year-old male …
Figure-8-Reconstruction Of Posterior Sternoclavicular Joint Dislocation 18 Days Post Initial Injury, M Suri, S Bunemann
Figure-8-Reconstruction Of Posterior Sternoclavicular Joint Dislocation 18 Days Post Initial Injury, M Suri, S Bunemann
Clinical Practice in Athletic Training
Introduction: Traumatic sternoclavicular joint injuries account for less than 3% of all traumatic joint injuries1. Although rare, posterior dislocation of the sternoclavicular joint has the potential to be life-threatening due to the proximity of vital structures posterior to the manubrium. This injury typically requires a high-energy force applied through the joint2. SC dislocations become increasingly difficult to reduce after 24 hours, so timely diagnosis and treatment are important. Glass et al. found mediastinal compression occurred 30% of the time with posterior dislocations. If left untreated, prolonged pressure on the superior mediastinum can cause erosion of the great vessels, tracheoesophageal fistula, …
Conservative Care Of A Patient With Initial Anterior Shoulder Dislocation Participating In An Intercollegiate Basketball: A Disablement Model Case Study, Lucas Bianco
Clinical Practice in Athletic Training
A 23-year-old male patient participating in intercollegiate basketball, suffered an acute shoulder dislocation. The patient was diagnosed with an anterior glenohumeral labral tear and was treated with an indirect approach to increase range of motion (ROM) and function while decreasing pain. Patient-related outcome (PRO) measures were used along with clinician related outcome (CRO) measures to discharge the patient. The immediate changes in ROM and pain along with follow-up assessments of the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, Hand (DASH) Scale achieved Minimal Clinically Importance Difference (MCID) levels. As rehabilitation specialists, athletic trainers have the opportunity to provide quality care to patients …

Best Practices For Clinical Evaluation Of Sacroiliac Joint Pain: An Evidence-To-Practice Review, Nicolette A. Harris, Adriana Peña, Sofia Núñez Rivera
Clinical Practice in Athletic Training
Sacroiliac joint (SIJ) pain serves as an under-recognized source of chronic low back pain. Improvement in the accuracy of a clinical SIJ pain diagnosis lends a higher likelihood of appropriate treatment measures, better patient outcomes and decreased out-of-pocket costs. Therefore, the overall purpose of this evidence to practice review was to highlight the main points of a systematic review on the clinical diagnosis of SIJ pain. Searches of five electronic databases revealed 758 studies, nonetheless only six studies met final inclusion criteria. Studies included were assessed by the authors for methodological quality using the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies …

A 17-year-old high school female cross-country runner and basketball player presented with syncope following long-endurance exercise. The syncope episodes started when the patient was 13 years old during a basketball game. After the first episode, the patient fainted every time she crossed the finish line of a cross-country meet. Her symptoms included increased heart rate, shortness of breath, and paresthesia in her hands and legs during exercise. The patient also experienced some dizziness when quickly sitting or standing during activities of daily living. The patient was first misdiagnosed with exercise induced asthma and prescribed a rescue inhaler to take prior …

Treatment And Management Of Complex Knee Injury: A Case Report, K Braunreiter, S Kerwin
Clinical Practice in Athletic Training
Background: The “unhappy triad” injury includes tears of the anterior cruciate ligament, medial collateral ligament, and medial meniscus. There is limited research on the prevalence and outcome of this injury. The unique surgical repair consisting of lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) was utilized to reinforce the anterior cruciate ligament repair (ACLR) and to prevent rerupture. Due to this extensive surgery, the patient struggled to regain full range of motion and quadriceps activation. This case is a Level 2 case study that explores the different interventions used to address the aforementioned objective deficits and return him safely to play. Patient: The patient …

Clinical Practice in Athletic Training
Tendon pathology has been studied across healthcare professions but remains poorly understood. Imaging and clinical findings have been used to diagnose tendon pathology, but these findings are discrepant. It is vital that clinicians use sound clinical judgment to determine the most accurate clinical diagnosis and treatment options given documented clinical findings. The purposes of this study were to assess athletic trainers’: 1) documented clinical findings for patients presenting with tendon pain, 2) use of documented findings to inform clinical diagnosis of tendon pathology, and 3) change in tendon pathology classification when presented with a novel diagnostic term. A total of …

Deep Vein Thrombosis In Lower Extremity Of A Female Collegiate Volleyball Athlete: A Case Study, Lucas D. Dargo, Kendra Borton, Rachel Roths, Zachary Dougal
Clinical Practice in Athletic Training
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) occurs when a blood clot forms in deep veins in the body, usually in the lower extremity. DVT is commonly seen in older or hospitalized patients. This case is unique because the patient is a 20-year-old female division III collegiate volleyball athlete, which is not the typical age or population affected by DVT or clotting disorders. The patient presented with swelling, pain, and decreased knee flexion (3/5) and plantarflexion (4/5) strength in her left lower extremity. These impairments reduced her ability to walk or run. The patient’s athletic trainer (AT) initially diagnosed her with a left …
