Description

The goal of this unit is to cover a variety of standards involving the assessment and evaluation of sports injuries. The topics include:
  • mechanisms of injury
  • primary injury evaluation (basic CPR response)
  • secondary injury evaluation (HOPS method)history
  •      observation
  •      palpation
  •      special tests (active motion, passive motion, strength test, stability test,
  •      functional activity, and sport-specific activity
  • return to play
  • documentation (including SOAP notes)
 
This unit includes the following:
“Less is More” Game (PowerPoint) and optional Student Handout (PDF- printable or fillable)
This game works great as a “hook” to get students interested in the topic. This one is a typical trivia type game but with a twist. All the statistics are related to the topic and students should be able to make good educated guesses. The purpose of the game is to guess a number as close to the correct answer as possible. Like golf, the team/individual with the LOWEST score wins.
There are two versions and ways to play:
VERSION 1: Students will simply get the question and make a guess. They can either just write down their answers on the worksheet provided. The fillable PDF version is actually set up to do the calculations for them or you can just print them and have them do the math.
VERSION 2: This version is a bit more interactive. A representative for each team will need to throw a ball (I use a wadded-up piece of paper) into the bowl/cup that is their guess for that question. Full instructions for the game can be found in the written and/or video instructions provided
 
Assessment and Evaluation of Sports Injuries (PowerPoint or Google Slides) and Student Notes Handout (PDF- printable or fillable)
This presentation was created to cover all the above listed topics. The PowerPoint is included as well as a link to the Google Slides Presentation. Also included is an optional "Notes Handout" for students to fill in while you present the information. There is a printable or fillable option available.
 
Mechanisms of Injury Worksheet (Printable or fillable PDF with Answer Key)
This worksheet reviews the five mechanisms of injury by having students assign the mechanism that contributed the most to the injury. Both a printable and fillable PDF is available as well as an answer key. A full explanation of the answers can be found in the video instructions.
 
Check it Out Activity (Evaluator Handout- PDF and Patient Script- PDF)
I wanted to create an activity that was hand-on to allow students to see and experience the process of evaluation. I choose to do a simple shoulder evaluation concentrating on the rotator cuff muscles. One person will play the role of the evaluator and the other the role of the patient. The evaluator will be given all the information they need to complete the evaluation and the "patient" will be provided a script to follow. The purpose of the activity is to determine if and which rotator cuff muscle is injured.
Video instructions for more clarification is included.
 
SOAP Notes Worksheet and Case Studies (PDF- printable and fillable options)
To make sure students understand the breakdown of how to complete a SOAP note, this worksheet will have them place phrases into categories. It also comes with two case studies where they can fill out blank SOAP notes.
 
We Must Protect This Egg Activity (PowerPoint display, Teacher instructions- PDF and Student Instruction Sheet- PDF)
This activity is truly designed to just have fun and can be done at any time during the unit. It goes well when discussing the "Mechanisms of Injury" or anytime during the unit where you want to stress the importance of prophylaxis in sports medicine. I have typed up a detailed set of ideas and instructions for this activity as well as in the video instructions.
