1、Chapter 11: Understanding the Basics of Injury Rehabilitation,Therapeutic Exercise Exercise used as part of a rehabilitation programConditioning Exercise Activities that are used to minimize injury and maximize performance,Philosophy of Athletic Injury Rehabilitation,While the majority of injuries d

2、o not involve long-term rehabilitation programs those that do require supervision of highly trained professionals Coach should rely on athletic trainer to design, implement, and supervise rehabilitationCoach is limited in the extent to which he/she can legally be involved in supervising or designing

3、 program,Swelling and pain control should be provided immediately Coach can be involved initially in application of first aid Goal of athlete Return to activity as quickly and as safely as possible Must be prudent in decisions regarding aggressiveness of treatment/rehabilitation A mistake in judgmen

4、t by the individual in-charge of the rehabilitation could hinder the athletes return,Basic Components and Goals of a Rehabilitation Program,Must address several basic components Short term goals Provide correct and immediate first aid to control swelling Control pain Restore full ROM Restore core st

6、ciple Each factor is critical in limiting swelling Coach should be capable of providing first aid regardless of whether an ATC is present,Controlling Pain,Some degree of pain will be experienced Pain will be dependent on the severity of the injury, athletes response, perception of pain and the circu

7、mstances PRICE and additional modalities (electrical stimulation, heatetc.) can be used to help modulate pain Pain can interfere w/ rehab and therefore must be addressed throughout the rehab process,Restoring Range of Motion,Injury to a joint will always be associated w/ some loss of motion Due to c

15、blishing neuromuscular control requires repetition of same movement, step by step until it becomes automatic (progression from simple to difficult task) Functional exercises are critical for re-establishing control,Regaining Balance,Ability to balance and maintain postural stability is essential to

16、reacquiring athletic skills Program should incorporate functional exercises that involve balance training Failure to include balance training may predispose the athlete to re-injury,When balance is challenged the response is reflexive and automatic The primary mechanism for controlling balance occur

17、s in the joints of the lower extremity The ability to balance and maintain it is critical for athletes If an athlete lacks balance or postural stability following injury, they may also lack proprioceptive and kinesthetic information or muscular strength which may limit their ability to generate an a

18、dequate response to disequilibrium A rehabilitation plan must incorporate functional activities that incorporate balance and proprioceptive training,Maintaining Cardiorespiratory Fitness,Single most neglected component of rehabilitation When injury occurs athlete is forced to miss training time whic
