Rehabilitation of Musculoskeletal Injuries in Young Athletes.

Rehabilitation of Musculoskeletal Injuries in Young Athletes. Adolesc Med State Art Rev. 2015 Apr;26(1):100-15 Authors: Brooks G, Almquist J Abstract Caring for young athletes challenges the physician to use primary preventive measures to prevent injury and to respond with secondary measures when injuries do occur. An enhanced knowledge of the rehabilitation process will assist the physician in making the appropriate referrals and in evaluating the patient's condition before clearing that athlete. Use of criteria-based testing may aid the primary care physician in determining an athlete's readiness for sport. PMID: 26514034 [PubMed - in process]
