Injuries, Research, Evidence and Promotions

Hey DPT Community,

Here is a great piece on a promotions effort from the APTA tying together an injury issue in PT (ACL), the prevalence of the problem (particularly with female soccer players), a discussion of the research leading to evidence-based conclusions. The handout incorporates the evidence and is an easy to follow program in which, according to the evidence will significantly reduce the onset of this injury for female athletes.

This is exactly the type of integrated effort linking the evidence with identified problems and providing solutions! Read it carefully and see what you think!
