Study Notes
Rugby Player Tooth Treatment
- Appropriate immediate treatment for an avulsed tooth (covered in dirt) involves sticking the tooth back into the socket without cleaning, and ensuring the crown faces the correct direction.
Weight Training for 12-Year-Olds
- Most injuries in young athletes during weight training occur at growth plates.
Hip Arthroscopy for Athletes
- Evidence of a beneficial effect from hip arthroscopy can last for up to 10 years.
- Combining labral repair and osteoplasty during arthroscopy can lead to improved outcomes.
- Significant complications occur with a 20% rate.
Immobilisation and Strength Loss
- Muscle strength decreases significantly in the first week of limb immobilisation.
- Fast-twitch muscle fibers show a greater loss of strength than slow-twitch fibers during immobilisation.
Exertional Headaches
- Elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) or cardiac causes are possible underlying issues in exertional headaches.
Exercise for Chronic Hypertension
- High-intensity exercise is more effective than low-intensity exercise in lowering blood pressure.
- Resistance training with high weight and low repetitions is a suitable exercise to lower blood pressure.
Glycogen Recovery after Soccer Training
- Fartlek training is the worst method for restoring glycogen stores after training for soccer players, compared to the other methods listed.
Exercise Stress Test Contraindications
- Unstable angina is an absolute contraindication for an exercise stress test.
Frostbite Treatment
- Rapidly rewarming frostbite is crucial.
- Large blisters post-rewarming usually indicate a poor prognosis.
Exercise Stress Treatment Contraindications
- Acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina, high-risk unstable angina, symptomatic severe aortic stenosis, uncontrolled arrhythmia, hemodynamic instability, unstable heart failure, acute pulmonary embolus, and acute aortic dissection are absolute contraindications for cardiac stress testing.
Exercise-Associated Muscle Cramps (EAMC)
- EAMC results from altered neuromuscular activity, with disturbances at various levels of the central and peripheral nervous systems and skeletal muscle.
School Children Snowboarding
- Hard boots can reduce the risk of injury.
- Helmets and wrist guards are important protective gear.
- Hip pads can help prevent fractures and dislocations.
- Elbow pads generally prevent various minor injuries.
- Back-bone guards can lessen the risk of concussion.
Posterior Ankle Pain in Pointe Dancers
- Flexor hallucis longus (FHL) tenosynovitis is the most likely diagnosis for posterior ankle pain with crepitus in pointe dancers.
Tanner Stage and Pubic Hair
- Tanner Stage 3 is characterized by coarse pubic hair but not on inner thighs.
Stress Fractures in Ballet Dancers
- The base of the second metatarsal is the most frequent site for stress fractures in ballet dancers.
Athlete with Vitamin D Deficiency
- Vitamin D supplementation should start at 3000-5000 IU a day, and then follow up with a recheck after 10-12 weeks.
Time Zone Changes and Travel
- Adapting to a new time zone typically takes one day for each time zone crossed.
