Surgery And Conservative Treatment Of The Acl-Mcl Injured Knee, Mason Mcmanimon-Myers

Undergraduate Research Celebration 2018

There is a clinical need to evaluate the effectiveness of nonoperative versus operative treatment of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)-medial collateral ligament (MCL) combined knee injury. The incidence of these injuries is frequent in athletic populations and requires the best treatment for optimal patient outcomes and function in day-to-day life as well as athletics. The appraisal focuses on whether or not to pair ACL reconstruction with MCL reconstruction or ACL reconstruction with MCL bracing. Focused Clinical Question: What is the effect on patients with a combined ACL-MCL injury of the knee with conservative treatment compared to surgery on patient reported …

Validation Of Modified Functional Movement Screen (Mfms) In Ncaa Diii Female Soccer Players, Tiffany Widseth

All Zyzzogeton Presentations

Background: The Functional Movement Screen (FMS) is comprised of seven tests to identify compensatory movement patterns that may increase injury risk and reduce performance. A modified FMS (MFMS) was created by Augsburg Athletic Trainers to improve screening efficiency and includes three original FMS tests: shoulder mobility, active straight leg raise, trunk stability pushup, and a newly added test; the vertical drop jump (VDJ), all scored on a simplified 0-2 scale. Objective: This study aimed to validate the MFMS for DIII female soccer players. Methods: Sixteen NCAA DIII soccer players and twenty non-athlete controls were recruited and completed two trials of …
